And I'd like to ask why?

lilo, thought I like grub too.
Lilo does its job and has various bells and whistles I might need (activating partitions, changing part. types etc.),
I know it will work as expected.

Lilo, but that's only becaues i'm famaliar with it! I've only used grub once, and that was because my brother was using it and I was helping him install his wifi card.

Nevermind that grub has huge security risks , that I do not want on my servers / desktops

Lilo. I've never used grub, and I can't see a reason I'd want to.
