1. You err... take the hard drive out of your laptop (why on earth???).
2. You boot from CD-ROM/Bootdisk
3. After boot you remove the CD-rom and put in another one and play a game of it
4. It works.
5. You're ... surprised?

This is the way it has always worked. In the old days when PC's didn't have harddrive's you'd boot from a floppy containing the OS. AFter boot this would reside in memory and you swapped the disks to start your program/game.
