I have four OS's on my Laptop.....and I can't imagine why somebody would need 10 or more OS's one just one machine

• Fedora11 (With about 6 kernels...don't ask me why )
  
• Windows 7 (Upgraded from Vista)
  
• Windows XP
  
• Ubuntu

You know, you guys with a recovery partition (well if you didn't blow it up that is) technically have a dual boot right there!

LOL...... I've totally forgotten everything related to that partition.
However, thanks to your post, I have 5 OS's now


And no......I didn't blow it up.
It'd be a shame to blow up something that took too much time to get fixed, so I burnt it!! ...........................on DVDs ofcourse

win 7 64bit

[woody.cool]

I run far too many!

Currently, I have:

1. Windows XP Professional SP3
2. Windows 2000 Professional SP4
3. Windows 98 Second Edition + Unofficial Service Pack 2 & all the updates I can find on the web
4. MS-DOS 6.22 & Windows 3.11 For Workgroups (struggling with drivers for stuff here)
5. Ubuntu 9.10

Need to tidy it up a bit though.

[VideoRipper]

Just the one here; I've got a multi-PC setup with a KVM and an array of screens.
Every PC runs it's own OS (although they're not all on at the same time).

[herbalist]

On the Dell PC, 2 OS,
98SE (default)
XP

On the HP PC, 5 OS,
98FE (default)
98SE
Win2K
Puppy Linux
Knoppix (poor mans install)

On the gateway PC 1 OS
Win2K

[nimd4]

• Fedora
  
• Windows 7 x86 for testing
  
• Windows XP Pro

P.S.
Just saw the topic, Which oldest OS by Microsoft do you use?
... So I gotta add, Windblow$ 2000 Advanced Server.

Oh, you mean on one computer?
(I voted 20, all the OSes I've ever multi-booted with any other OS.)

The most I've had at once on a single computer was 6, but that was for a class. It was:

• Windows 2000 Pro
  
• Windows 2000 Server
  
• Windows XP Pro
  
• Windows Server 2003
  
• Windows Vista Enterprise
  
• Red Hat Fedora 6

--Ick!

When I multiboot at home, it's usually 2 or 3 of these:

• Slackware 12 (Linux)
  
• Slackware 13 (Linux)
  
• Absolute Linux
  
• Windows XP Pro
  
• Ubuntu (Linux)
  
• Knoppix (Linux)...haven't used that one for a while, though.

You forgot Better Privacy.

Put those 3 together and that's as safe as you get without anonymous websurfing and using a U3 browser in "portable mode".
