This is actually not even slightly true, since Windows 2000 (and 
possibly NT), one has been able to mount partitions to sub foulders.
Allowing you to have

C:\My Documets\ -> hda
C:\Windows -> hdb
C:\Program Files -> hdc

The above is also incredibly easy to do using the GUI tools (not to say 
it isn't with linux!).

Looks like it isn't just the Windows croud that spreads fud ;)
