Windows development on a Mac Pro

Looking to do iphone, android, and possibly windows phone development on a Mac Pro. What are the pluses and minuses of using a Mac Pro and a dual boot. Unlike most, Windows 7 will be the primary OS since most supporting software will be done with Visual Studio 08/10 over the next year. I have found driver issues from a few years ago. Do any of these issues still exist?

+3  A: 

The BootCamp drivers on the OSX (Snow) Leopard should cover everything. Although, they most likely will need to be updated.

Personally, I prefer Parallels so I can run Windows 7 and OS X simultaneously.
