Probably not.  It's just more logical, IMVHO. :^)

Good reason. ;^) - Having thought about it, I should probably also note 
that setting up partitions this way may be because in a dual boot 
situation, OSX likes to be first, or (on some early newworld machines) has 
to be in the first 6-8GB of disk to boot natively.  So do it the way that 
works best for you.  (Ain't that what Linux is for? :)

I think you did.  I was just wondering.

Anytime.  :^)
