[GLLUG] Grub vs NTLDR

Okay - Dual boot question.

I have set up a few dual boot systems in my past.  One Slackware, one RH9 and one Debian.  

At ONE point I had a real problem with GRUB and XP (XP wouldn't boot anymore.)  Anyway, the way I have it set up now my system uses the NTLDR (had to copy blah blah you guys know the drill, right?)  This seemed like a pain in the butt.

Now I am considering reinstalling linux on this machine (it's a Thinkpad T42, btw) and wanted some opinions on which way to go with this.

Has anyone experienced freakouts when using grub and XP Pro?

Thanks,
