  Vista scoots to new boot, but it’s still kinda rooted
Time: 00:56 EST/05:56 GMT | News Source: APC Start | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

While Microsoft would like the world to believe that anyone running Windows has no need of any other operating system, that attitude doesn’t cut much mustard with many of its users.

Why settle for one OS when your PC is easily capable of running two or more?

Users who want to run Windows alongside (say) a flavour or two of Linux will typically end up with a customised master boot record (MBR). The default MBR on a typical Windows PC automatically passes control to Windows on booting, but a modified MBR can allow you to make your own selection.
