Well, as much disdain as I have for M$ products, I still advocate
keepin Winblows around. It's good for playin games, 'bout all it's good
for ;) Besides, if you've already got it, you already got stuck for it.
Billy doesn't give any refunds, and thinks you're a crook if you try'n
sell it or give it away.
I boot W98 directly to DOS (pure DOS, no windoze overhead present).
That's good for flashing a motherboard bios. Better than doin it from a
DOS floppy. Also, many bios upgrades for peripheals are windoze only
apps. That's reason enough for me to keep a minimum winblows install
around, that and flyin airplanes ;)
