But then, I find the whole idea of dual-booting insane

Linux is mostly used to rip CDs for my Linux based MP3 player. It'll see more use if the side venture pans out. At this time I don't use 98 or Linux often enough to warrent dedicated hardware. One thing I find interesting - under Windows and Linux the display won't go beyond 64K colors when I'm using the native resolution(1400x1050). Under OS/2 I can get 16.8M(don't know if it's 24 or 32 bit). My desktop system at home is OS/2 only.
