I do the same.  However, we wouldn't have to if the install routine

I've done that, too.  But I really hate dual-boot systems, it's always a
compromise.  I've only done it on three systems, that that I had already
paid for the other OS that came with it, and another that I wanted to do
some experimentation with (which usually gets abandoned after a week, or
so - I'm more interested in making use of the computer, not playing with
it).
