The dual boot thing really isn't that difficult. It's more a matter of learning a bootloader and sticking with that one. Of course it also depends how often you use Windows and how often you reinstall it. Seeing as I only boot into Windows once a week or less to play a game or run some benchmarks I almost never have problems. Of course your mileage may vary. Experience is what I talk from. Noobs might be more inclined to do the drive tray thing or keep a slower box around for Windows. :)
