They sorta did then sorta skipped everyone else. The real requirement was that their bootloader was in the first partition. You can install windows to a different drive/folder. It would probably mess with a lot of programs out there though. The later versions (past 2000 I think, maybe xp its been awhile) did not really give you the option to put it somewhere else.

The problem is they only really made it work correctly with OS2, WindowsNT, Win9x, and DOS. Even then it was kind of a pain to make it work correctly.

Have not messed with the UEFI bits they added in recent versions so it may be different now. But I doubt it.
