While probably true... I know I can send you probably 30 or more
than cannot be opened with anything on Linux.  There's a lot of
worthless junk out there and the list grows everyday.  And people
don't think... they just go "gee golly" and buy things.

I prefer running Windows (if you just have to) as a virtualized guest.
But most would note that means no 3d gaming (well... not practically).


=========================================================
I just saw an article on /. (http://slashdot.org) about this, here is the link
http://www.waltervos.com/news/shared-personal-folders-vista-ubuntu-permissions/ 
The article deals with dual booting Ubuntu and Vista
I don't know if this is really relevant since I have not RTFA
