that's exactly what I do, but I have two drives.
One alternative to running a Windows VM is to use Wine to "trick" apps into thinking they are in windows. Steam and TF2 are supposed to work without a hitch and without the speed problems that come with a virtual box. I have yet to try it as I'm running XP 64 with 8 gigs of RAM and Wine doesn't emulate the 64bit windows environment that efficiently yet.
I do my web development stuff on ubuntu, and hope to start learning software programming sometime soon.
