My Dad is quite savvy, but I'm more savvy ;-)

When I start explaining something, like the viruses, he'd /somehow/ find a
way to get back at me for it (not sure what, but he would).

Can I use a USB external HDD? If I could, would there be a noticeable
difference in performance? Also got no problems with backing up, got plenty
of storage ;-)

Not sure really - have you tried http://wubi-installer.org/?

It all depends on how savvy your Dad is as to how you persuade him I guess.
If you backup all your data then you've nothing to lose. Buying a second
hard drive so that you don't have to repartition your old one would be an
added safeguard.

No probs - I've changed the subject heading so that everyone knows we've
gone off on a tangent :D
