For those who are wondering, yes, Wine is malware compatible so be careful about the EXEs you run!

One of the things I learned several years ago was how to set up my HD so that the system and home folder are on different partitions. It isn't terribly hard to do, and every OS installer I've used gives you the option. It's served me very well.
What's the purpose of having system and home folder on different positions?
You can easily install a new system if your system gets borked or you just want a new distro, and you won't lose your files.
I don’t have a need for that atm(like I said, my laptop has a separate drive), but will look into that in case I ever need it in the future. My problem with this personally tho is that I share my drive between Windows and Linux, and Linux doesn’t exactly play well with NTFS. Sounds really cool however for having a multi boot Linux system, with all your files shared between distros.
