Installing Linux, WinXP 32 and Vista64 - Need suggestions and professional input!

[will500]

Hello, I hope all of you are well.

For reasons that are too boring to reveal I need to install both Windows XP (32 bit), Vista (64 bit) and I figure I might as well try Linux as well.

I wish to install Ubuntu Linux.

My question is, what is the best order to installing these and what do I use to select the operating systems at boot?

Thank you!

Started out as a crappy day but things eventually got better.

XP
Vista
Ubuntu

Since Ubuntu is the last in that list, it will provide it's own bootloader (called Grub) and if things go well during its installation then it should automatically add Windows to the boot menu. More information here.
