I'm sure lots of folks know this already, but impressive!

 

Recently built a dual-boot gaming rig with two SATA drives.. I installed iATKOS 5i on the first drive, then removed it. I installed Vista on the second drive, did all windows updates, etc.. then plugged the first drive back in. I just hit f12 and use my BIOS boot menu to select the second drive to boot into Vista - it still "detects" them the other way around. Pretty neat. I think it ignores drive 1 because of the non-MBR-style partition scheme.

 

..and the coolest part is, VMWare Fusion recgonizes the second drive as a "boot camp" partition and lets me boot it. Use the OS X retail CD that you bought from the Apple store (right?!) and install some of the boot camp drivers, etc, if you're using an Apple keyboard/mouse.
