"Not invented here"?
I suspect it grew from the DOS on floppy days, when a bootable floppy would have DOS, the apps and data. When hard drives became popular, they never moved beyond that idea. At least now, it's fairly easy to set up a separate partition for "My Documents" etc.
Not true. You always could put "My Documents" on a separate partition, since the moment that directory was invented and partitions were available. I did that since the start, way before I even heard of Linux around 1996. If the people you bought your computer knew their stuff, they set up your machine properly. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
