Anecdata, but I used to dual boot, until Windows mucked up the Linux boot more than once. Didn't play nice. So I run Windows in a VM now, it's not getting near the boot sector again.

Yep. I have a strict "Dual boot on dual drives" policy now because Windows thinks its too precious.

It only played to their disadvantage, for machines with single storage device now doesn't boot Windows at all or only from VM.
