a basic set-up to work with Vista dual-boot

Before I tweaked or installed any programs to Windows 7, there were a few things I needed to consider. I'm a web developer and a family man, with a daughter who occasionally uses my notebook. Previous experience with the Windows 7 beta has taught me that some programs do not play nicely if installed to a single partition and shared by two dual-boot Windows systems. I also want to return to Vista when the RC license expires. With all that in mind, to set up my fresh windows 7 RC installation, to enable me to work best with a Vista dual-boot, I took the following steps:

* add wireless printer and check it works in win 7 with current driver;
* install AVG 8.5 (to win7 partition);
* install utorrent (to win7 partition);
* forward port in Netgear router console for utorrent in Windows 7;
* add Documents, Music, Video and Pictures folders on Vista partition to counterparts in Windows 7 library;
* import (previously saved) bookmarks to IE8;
* install Google Chrome, mkv2vob and Apache (to win7 partition);
* set up Apache web server;
* install virtual PC (to Vista partition) and set up virtual machines;
* install Firefox, Opera, Safari and CDisplay (to Vista partition);
* set up new account for Myne-leeve-dohter and activate guest account;
* install Messenger and Movie Maker (to win7 partition);
* display selected desktop widgets;
* set up periodic backups to a new folder (win7_backup) on portable hard drive; do initial backup;
* install Dreamweaver and Fireworks (to Vista partition);
