Really?? It's still there, isn't it? I will still have to maintain it, I
will have to boot it and I will have to deal with it whenever I maintain the
disks, configure the network etc. (or in the case of Windows, perform the
weekly reinstall of the entire OS). This is not a solution for those that
wants to use MiNT/GEM as their primary OS, it's for those that has already
switched platform but wants to use their old software occasionally.
