Making a laptop dual boot is really no different than a desktop. If you've got Vista on the laptop, you'll probably have to use a newer linux distribution for it to auto-recognize it as the other OS (I know only 7.04
of Ubuntu will auto-recognize Vista when installing. Previous versions don't see it). But, if you're familiar with configuring the bootloader yourself, it's probably not as much an issue.<br><br>Just make sure you've got the free hard drive space for the second OS, and you've really got nothing to worry about.
