The main drawback here, as I see it, is that it precludes having a DOS
partition, which would be restricted to a C: designation and must be able to
do whatever you'd want it to do within the first 8G of the drive, incl. access
to any data on FAT-16 partitions. (I do like to run a number of "legacy"
app.s.) W2K -- and esp. XP -- is such a space-wasting behemoth that your
early 8G is gone before you know it. Since these Win partitions can be
logicals, I like to put them much later on the drive.
