FWIW, BootIt NG does at half the cost of PM/BM (is Boot
Magic available separately?). Of course BootEasy and GRUB
are free, though they don't have the Windows partition
resizing capabilities of BootIt.
What I'd like is to use GRUB to boot the two OSs on my
RAID-0 array and a third OS on my third hard drive.
Anyone know if GRUB is currently capable of handling this?
What about BootEasy?
