I agree with this assessment with respect to dual booting Windows + any linux, 
on UEFI. It's a fairly foul and highly variable UX, with multiple causes for 
this.

However, the dual boot UX of OS X and Fedora is at least as good as, and 
actually more reliable than Windows + Fedora on BIOS hardware due to how 
Apple's startup disk manager works, and the Herculean effort of Mathew Garret 
on mactel-boot.

The residual issues for Macs are about the same as for other narrow slices of 
hardware, e.g. video not working due to some kernel regression, or newer 
hardware than there's support for in the kernel; and sometimes wonky behaviors 
with trackpads and such.
