One advantage of that is that making a backup is easy. All the windows
stuff is on one file. One time I was doing this, the computer died and I
just copied the file to another one (no need to redo any Windows
installations).

I just keep rolling images of my C: with Achronis. stored in an
external backup drive. I can restore an old image and be a virgin
again in 10 minutes. It is a whole lot better than System Restore that
has always been hit and miss with me anyway.
