The first suggestion using multiple operating systems is the obvious one -- to try out some of the new operating systems available today like Linux, Windows 2000, or the BeOS. Some of these new operating systems offer some real advantages to us that we may want to try. However, you do not want to destroy your current Windows operating system just to try out one of the new ones. Using multiple operating systems, you can keep your current operating system and still try something new. Here’s how you do this.
	Once you have removed your applications and data files from your c: drive, you should have lots of empty room in it to take advantage of. Using PartitionMagic, you can reduce the size of your c: drive and set up another primary partition next to it. In this empty primary partition you will install the new operating system you want to try. There is a special paper on the PartitionMagic CD that leads you through the steps to do this.
	Switching between your current Windows system and the new operating systems is as easy as rebooting your system using PowerQuest’s BootMagic utility.
