Everything went nice and smooth. No hiccups whatsoever.
All up to date and running nicely.
Installed Microsoft Security Essentials (AV) for testing purposes, and I also got Firefox 3.7 (Minefield) installed. It's in pre-alpha stage but seems to be working nicely. Even some add-ons, like TabMixPlus are compatible.

A lot of full time Linux users prefer running Windows this way from what I gather on Linux Forums. When they need to run a certain piece of Software that Wine or Cedega can't run they go for VM Windows instead of Hard Install.

Nothing better than VM :)
I have all Windows versions since Win 98 installed that way.
