Several months ago, I purchased a new 27GB hard drive for my desktop. At
the time, I was using Windows, games, and collecting multimedia files. As
such, my 8GB drive was way too full. Also, since I only used Linux once in
a while, I only gave it my old 3.2GB drive. After getting the new drive,
Linux got all of my 8GB and a fresh install.
Then, things changed. I realized that I didn't have a lot of time for
games, and Windows stopped recognizing my CD-ROM and CD-RW drives. Too lazy
(or busy) to reinstall Windows, I started using Linux 24/7. Linux has been
my primary OS ever since. (several months later, due to the desire for
games, I did reinstall Windows and make it work again)
Recently, I realized that I had all this hard drive space that I wasn't
using. So, I pulled out a Partition Magic disk, and made it available. I
have now decided to put as many potentially useful operating systems on my
computer as I can dig up. One day, my System Commander startup menu may
scroll, and thus strike fear into the hearts of the weak! :)
