Yeah, but for some, the method you are talking about may not be an option, as
is the case with me. Some of us like to be able to use Windows and OS/2 (or
ArcaOS as is my case) at the same time without having to flip-flop back and
forth between OSes by rebooting. To me, what it boils down to is a matter of
convenience, and, sometimes, necessity.
