Ummmm, it's not meant to be "Windows on a ROM disk", is it??

It's meant to be a third-party, CD/DVD-ROM-based PXE, circumventing the 
licensing limitations of the "real" PXE (basically only large OEMs and 
various very large bulk-licensing program customers are allowed to use 
MS' CD/DVD-ROM-based PXE, or at least that was how it was back when the 
Bart-PE project started).
