Default Dual boot screen?

Ok, the new pc parts are arriving today and as its my parents PC, i want to keep them happy and leave XP on it.

I would like Vista and Ubuntu on there, and if the parents like it then it stays or if i hate it then it goes, but ubuntu is a must for me.

What i want to know is, is there a program that controls the dual booting where it automatically boots XP without any buttons needed to be pressed. Then if i hold a button whislt turning the pc on it will go to the dual boot screen and i can choose Vista/ubuntu from there.

So basically its purpose will be to install more than 1 OS without the parents even knowing.

I believe their are programs out there for mac's but i cant find anything for a custom built pc.
