Is there any way to block distracting software on my computer? There are a blue million apps that will block websites, but I can't find any that will stop me from playing games I've installed. Ideally, I'd like some software that lets me play my games, but only after a 10 minute wait. But I'd settle for anything now that can restrict my access to games without uninstalling them entirely.

Dual boot to Linux for working and to Windows for the games?

Password Door, or Microsoft Family Safety (for Windows, available through the parental controls; I think you need to have some else administer it though).
