How many people are still using DOS at this point?  About the only time I
boot into DOS (command-line Win98, really) is to update a motherboard's BIOS
ROM or to make a disk image with Ghost.

Cross-platform is the smart way to go at this point, especially as more
people start getting fed up with Windows and start looking for alternatives. 
(My notebook no longer dual-boots Windows and Linux.  It only boots Linux;
the handful of Windows apps I'm still using work with Wine and/or a Win2K VM
running under VMware.)
