i need to run multiple OSes, more than 4 (primary PC partitions limit),
on a single box (which i _finally_ bought, being a poor student).

But not only this - i am unable to write drivers for some hardware
because of closed specifications (nVidia, various WiFi, Adaptecs etc).

Besides, i dislike toying with kernels in silence, and iPod is pricey.
