What's wrong with it is that in order to do it, you most likely need
to resize your ntfs partition, which is more tricky than it sounds. If
I personally were getting a machine with windows already preinstalled
on it, and using the entire drive, I would choose to run gnu/linux
under a virtual machine, rather than going the dual boot
route. Besides, one advantage of not dual booting is that you have
access to both operating systems at the same time.
