Big advantage. If one system doesn't work you can use the other one and fix it later. Also, a few programs only work on 98. Windows 2000 is so much more stable than 98 (13 times more according to MS) that I rarely use it. Why put up with all those lock ups, etc? -- Best regards, Bil mailto:tv.vcrrepair@xxxxxxxxxxx Tuesday, November 5, 2002, 5:55:22 PM, you wote: gjc> Friends, gjc> What advantage would one have by installing two operating systems.
