New triple-boot
My desktop is OS/2 only but my laptop triple boots Win98-OS/2-Linux.

98's used for after hours support - I'd rather VPN than drive to the office.

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.

New My record is 7
..for an SMS project.

1) Bootloader was Boot Manager. Entries: OS/2 3, OS/2 4, Windows

Choose Windows and you get:

2) Windows boot menu: Windows 95, Windows NT 3.51, Windows NT 4.0


So what was the 7th? WinOS/2, of course :)

             But then, I find the whole idea of dual-booting insane - (tseliot) - (5) - May 20, 2003, 11:16:15 AM EDT

The third one burned down, fell over, and then sank into the swamp.
