Installing Windows afterFedora

I have managed to go for just under a decade without a Windows machine, but now I need to have such, and I'd like to add it to an existing machine with a large enough partition which was used as work area for a project since shipped. The problem is that while I've put Fedora (and Linux back to SLS and Slackware on 2.2 kernels) on Windows machines, I haven't done it with anything else after, Linux has always been "the last OS you'll ever need" for dual boot.

I'm not worried about the grub.conf, but the boot sector could be an issue, I have seen reports that XP with patches and Win7 check the boot sector now (XP at patch level 3). other than having to rewrite the boot sector, is that going to be an issue? Any other things I should know?
