If you're interested in multi-boot w/ XP, be sure to check out Bob
Netherton's new blog:

Especially see his last three posts. Here's a snippet from one of them.

     ... For my operating systems I have decided to leave Windows XP on, at
     least for a while. Yes, it's a crutch, but until I get everything
     working I want to be able to fall back and play a little Alpha
     Centauri while I work through troublesome spots.

     I'm also interested in looking at both Solaris and OpenSolaris,
     so I'll plan for both.

     And I might as well put on a Linux distribution or two - and like XP,
     the space may well be reclaimed later. For the Linxux distributions
     I have selected Fedora Core 4 (as my Xen dom0) and the Linux version
     of the Java Desktop System...
