Re: dule Booting

As long as you don't install Vista into the same folder (folder in this case
means partition) as XP you should get a normal boot options screen allowing
you to pick which OS to boot into. However, do not do this in a production
environment or on a primary home computer. It is pre-release software and
can (and did to me once) mess up the whole machine. It was my test box and
didn't hurt anything, but if you rely on this computer for your everyday
work and enjoyment, don't do it.
