This just reminded me of something.  I've read how one can supposedly 
have multiple Linux distros installed on a single computer and all use a 
shared home directory.  In theory it make sense, but more often than not 
I hear of numerous problems that crop up.  Off the top of my head it 
seems that not all linux distros put stuff in the same place.  Since 
this is the case, it seems like a recipe for a big mess with 
configuration files.

I tried it briefly with Kubuntu and Fedora Core a number of months ago. 
  Several problems did indeed crop up.
