FreeBSD and all Linuxes I've ever encountered come with installers which acknowledge the fact that other operating systems exist and makes some effort at making things work. Most of the docs out there if I remember correctly assume a double-boot setup, but with a little bit of planning, you should be able to triple-boot fine. You will need to partition at least three slices, and install Windows before the others in order to avoid having the Windows installer wipe out stuff it does not understand. There are several howtos out there within search engine reach which will be helpful. -- Peter N. M.
