Meh imo I don't see the point in dual booting. Lets say I'm in a game, but suddenly I want to go type something up in Word, but Word is faster in Windows 7, so I'll have to restart my entire computer just to go type something, then restart again to go play games again >.> (in other words, total waste of time imo)
Even when testing OS's I tend to just wipe my entire computer (except with Ubuntu, sometimes I just use wubi which is awesome).
