In the boot menu you might have a choice of Operating System (I do, on one of my computers that has both Linux and WindowsXP - when I start the machine the GRUB shows me a menu in which I choose OS)
GRUB = GRound U Boot loader
WindowsXP is the operating system, it has to be running for any menu to show.

In Windows 8 Developers Preview it was possible to just disable the Metro theme with a simple registry edit. And this brought back the Windows 7 start menu.
