My particular situation is that I'll be getting a machine with Windows 98 
already installed. I do need to have Windows available, but I  plan to 
install Red Hat so I can have a dual boot machine. 

I'm also considering doing some experimenting with Minix in the future so 
I might want to also install that. Which leads to another question -- is 
there any reason why I couldn't have a "tri-boot" machine -- I've heard 
quite a bit about dual boot but not much  about more than that...)

Thanks for the previous replies to my original question. It seems like  
a consensus is emerging that Partition Magic may not be necessary but that 
it certainly won't hurt and that it might even be nice... (fair summary?)

Thanks,
Ted
