Dual booting, to me anyway, seems an irritation more than a practical solution to a problem, be something like ohh ill UV this, save the images, reboot to open whatever you need create the texture, reboot, check it out, reboot, edit, reeboot etc etc, but if thats what your prepared to do then go for it!

I'd rarther wait till the technology matures a bit, but as Mat said hes had no probs so it would probably be ok.
