Yes, you can have all three on the same
computer. Just install Linux last and use
either GRUB or lilo to boot either of those
three...

Yes it is. I have installed win98 and then winXP, which recognize both and I left a partition for linux. After all I installed Linux. There was just a smal problem.
When I chose Boot loader for linux, it recognized both windows, one named DOS and the other withought name. I chose a name for it.
At the boot time I faced those three name, but the one I chose a name didn't work. I chose DOS and then I found myself at the position that I can choose between those two windows.
So when you are installing linux let it do whatever it says.
