There is indeed an alternative to just bootcamp or VMs, for Intel macs (not G4/5s) called rEFIt.
Unlike Windows, Intel macs use a boot architecture called EFI. You can overwrite that with an open source product called rEFIt that boots into a screen that is similar to holding down the option key when you boot up. It will let you select Windows, OSX, Linux drives to boot (or try to boot) from. I have been using it on my Mac Pro for 3+ years with not a single hiccup but your mileage might vary.
