How many of you use two or more operating systems in a multiboot manner? (not on virtual machines) Why?

I don't. I don't like the idea. Managing things like that is cumbersome. :yes:

    i use it as my old pc is a piii. so when i use it for LAN gaming i have to use win98 and when its used for typing docs and stuff we use winXP.

    but some times i use win98 as a backup OS cause it was infected with a virus that only affected winXP/2000(NT plat.)

    i think multi os is not a fashion or thing to like nor dislike, its a need for some and nothing for others.

    A PIII is not that bad for XP. All you need is more RAM.
