Vista and XP can coexist peacefully on one drive. I've not tried linux and Vista on one drive. As cheap as hard drives are these days I would rather put that *other* OS on its own drive. It matters not what the OS decides to do to the MBR then. Of course you can't do that so easily on a laptop. FWIW, it really is ideal to either give Vista its own drive get a BIG drive. Vista is so freakin' bloated it takes nearly 10GB of space to install. And that is just the OS!! Oh but Freecell is so cool now...
At present Vista is the *new* M.E. We shall see if that changes in the next 6 months to a year. --- larry price <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 2/20/07, Bob Crandell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > It's getting harder to find laptops without Vista.
