I still have one, but it is a three position harddrive switch so it is only 
used from a cold boot.  It has Amiga XL, Unix Sys V Rel 4, and Mandriva on 
it.  In the past five years only Mandiva has ever been booted.  On the other 
hand, I HAVE used the ESC menu to boot into the older kernel when whatever 
version it was broke my wireless and sound.  Not hard, even I was able to do 
it!  Still is not that different from a dual boot GRUB menu?  On my Amiga 
setup, GRUB allows me to either boot into Amiga or into QNX which also allows 
me to run Amiga as a task.  I must say I set it to boot to QNX as default as 
the resolution was better.  I have watched windoze users over the years and 
have never want to be one,  ...I have enough aggravation in my life without 
adding what I've seen others having to deal with in windoze, to the mix!
