I have MacOSX and 9 running on my G3...

I found that, if I don't get any help from people, I would search for it myself. But why would you want to have two OS in the first place? I mean, you're mostly using the comp for leisure purposes right? Like, playing games and shit. Other OS besides Windows sometimes doesn't support FUN :P .

bah, depends on how you define fun. BSODs are not fun.

Some people dual boot because they can only play some games in Windows. Depends on what you want to accomplish. My opinion is that you use the best tool for the job. If you want to play games, get a gamecube, if you want to work, use a computer. Same applies to software.

If you want to learn about dual (multi OS) booting, it is a lot easier to ask google then it is to ask someone here. The howtos and guides are a lot better worded than what we can spin off the top of our heads because the subject matter is so diverse.
