Hi Peter,
Very true, but there are a few ways of avoiding it. One is to use a boot
manager that allows you to select which volumes are available to each
installation and not load the Vista system volume when XP is booted. A
second is for users of Bitlocker which (available to only certain versions
of Vista) will block XP from altering anything on the Vista system volume.
