Yep, just edit this file:

/boot/grub/menu.lst

for example:

$sudo gedit/boot/grub/menu.lst

At the top of the file, there is an option that lets you specify which
OS loads by default.
The file is clearly commented, you will find easily.

Also, you can rearrange/reorder the menu entrie (defined further down
the file) to actually change in which order they are displayed on the
screen.
