ZP or DH - I'm still preparing to build my system as the parts trickle in and have a couple of basic questions. First, re: partitions, could you explain why it's a good idea to partition the OS separately? And also possibly partitioning data and apps separately? I'll only be using Win98 so dual booting isn't an issue. If I use 2+ partitions I assume tape backup software will allow unattended backups of the separate partitions....never had a system setup like that. Thanks. DB
