Debian dual boot with Windows 7

[jbk]

You know hard drives are so cheap that it might be worth it just to buy 
one and swap it with the oem drive. I wish I had done that with my own 
install because since I've gone to the trouble of preserving the vista 
partitions I've only booted into vista once every 3 months. It only 
takes 5 minutes on my laptop to swap a drive so you could reasonable 
carry or have on hand both discs and swap them as needed.
