Why?

Convenience. I need to run Windows to run games and I'm too lazy to keep
rebooting...
Well, as soon as Return to Castle Wolfenstein arrives I'll be running
Linux non-stop for a few weeks at least :-)
If only they'd release more games for Linux, then I could dump Windoze
completely.

Just a quick related question: I use Mozilla for my mail in both Windoze
and Linux. Has anyone ever attempted to get them to share the same mail
folders?
It would be great if this was possible as I don't like to have several
copies of the same message floating around the machine in different mail
clients...

I suppose I could check all my mail using Evolution or something via an
xVNC session on our network server but that's a bit of a hastle to have
to start a VNC session just to check my mail (and Mozilla doesn't work
over it anyway - my guess is that it writes directly to the graphics
card rather than going 100% through X).

Thanks,

David.
Set your windows or linux email client to leave a copy on the server and one 
or the other to download and delete, therefore you can have a copy in both, i 
use Opera to read email(left on server) in windows and kmail in linux, works 
a treat never miss an email thats been deleted. As for Castle Wolfenstein it 
plays like a dream in linux. Cannot stop playing on the net.
