Networking different versions of Vista

I want to run Vista Home Premium 64bit on my laptop and Vista Business 32bit on my desktop connected through a wireless network. Will they "talk" to one another? Can they be truly networked? Will the laptop be able to use the printers on the desktop?

You can try connecting the printer first to the 64 BIT OS and if it can install the drivers for the printer , then it will work for you.

Thanks. I eill definitely try that. Would that work also if I were going to connect the 64 bit laptop to a desktop running XP Professional before I install VISTA Business 32 bit on the desktop?
