Download Squad note with interest the case of the guy who installed three versions of DOS, five versions of Windows, and 137 different flavors of Linux onto a single computer with four hard drives divided into 152 partitions. I don’t know if there’s any kind of record-keeping for this sort of thing, but I wonder if you could conceivably do it one better by doing it on a Mac using Parallels, VMWare Fusion or something like that. Opinions? Not that there’s any reason for it, other than sheer curiosity, and a lot of geekery.
