I dual booted during the Windows Vista beta. So that I always had a fall
back position.
I also dual booted between Windows 9x and XP because I had a 3dfx graphics
card which had no drivers for XP and so games wouldn't run properly or would
run very slow on XP, I did that for a month or so until I got my GeForce 3.
So mainly compatibility and to ease migration.
