Probably for some people but the normal requirement is to be able to do it for a very large image so that you can print them on multiple sheets of paper.

Funny - I just pull a big image into MSpaint and print it....it automagically tiles across multiple pages...

And, yes, IM is great for that sort of batch scripting.

I didn't know that. The clever thing about many of the special programs to do it tho is that you can set some overlap so that when you have all the sheets of paper you can cut them roughly in the overlap region, match them up and sticky tape them together. To do that with Paint means some super accurate cutting against a white edge. Of course no overlap is exactly what you do want for tiles in a google maps type thing except I don't reckon you can get Paint to give you that as an output without printing them.
