Well, lemme see here... from personal experience:
a) because it's easy to install.
b) if you've only got ONE hard drive, DOS is already installed, along with a 
whole bunch of stuff that you'd rather not lose.  (Remember, boot manager 
installation requires partitioning).
c) if (B) and you don't have a tape drive for use in creating a full drive 
backup.
d) you still have to boot native DOS because your terminal emulator (supplied 
by your MS-centric employer) won't work in WINOS/2 (or you don't have time   
to figure out how to get the *()&)(*& to work).
This is a start, I'd say..
