agreed. i always have problems when i attempt to have multiple operating systems, and in particular always seem to have trouble with the linux/windows combination.

in light of your question the answer is yes, it is possible, and you shouldn't need a seperate hdd, but the chances of something going wrong with a triple boot are much more likely. and yes, i am pretty sure it will come up as a third option in the boot menu, i'm not entirely sure but someone else here might be able to confirm it.

i guess the real question you need to ask yourself is whether this is something you REALLY want to do. if you ask for my opinion (well tough, i'm going to give it to you anyway

) i would say don't bother. either see if you are able to go about previewing this OS on another machine first, or find out from someone else who has a triple boot. IMHO it really just isn't worth it.
