True that, -but- A WinXP or Vista, or Win98 iirc, would all overwrite
the MBR, rendering your linux install useless til you do a "rescue" with
a live CD or similar .
Why not save that step by installing Windows first, then Linux? Rather
than Linux, Windows, then rescue Linux?
Maybe I'm just lazy. ;)
