I'm remembering now Vista being a culprit last time I was messing with 
this.. it kept switching how it is required to do dual boot.  My take 
right now on "the conspiracy" is that all OS developers, FreeBSD and 
Microsoft have increasingly had a sense that there are resources that they 
need to dominate, and that this is some sort of design decision, not 
really having in mind the whole dual boot concept.

All this for me has fallen by the wayside, because I have long since 
decided that each OS warrants its very own dedicated hard drive instead of 
negotiating with these MBR headaches.  Make sure you get a nice static 
grounding bracelet.
