Well for starters the easiest way to dual-boot is to install Windows First so ubuntu installs the GRUB boot-loader over top of the windows loader.
Second option is to install XP on an empty partition (or better yet a spare drive) and then re-install GRUB, altho i have only read of people doing this, never done it myself (in other words, possible but it can be tricky)

OR you could use VMWare to virtualize windows within Linux (though I personally prefer to have a physical machine dedicated to dual booting).
