I just think they ought to let users choose whether they want a
multi-OS distro.  If so, that's fine.  If not, don't make 'em purchase
the one just to get the other.  If they have decided to bundle 'em all
together, at one low price, great.

Someone mentioned Roxio.  Frankly, Roxio was one of the reasons I no
longer use Windows - or proprietary software.  Their CD Burning
software bombed on me when I upgraded from Win98 --> WinXP.  They
fixed it so you couldn't re-install the basic version after a certain
date because they expected you to upgrade by then.

The only alternative I could find at the time didn't work with my
burner.  I finally figured out how to burn CDs in X-CDRoast under SUS
8.0, which is about when I began seriously focusing on GNU/Linux. 
Come to think of it, I should probably shoot off an e-mail thanking
Roxio for helping me finally put my heart into learning GNU/Linux!
