Dual Boot 03 Server With vista?

I'm studying for the 70-293 so I thought I would post this question here.

I'm looking for a laptop that I can take to the library for my studying and doing the various exercises/practices on the 70-293 subjects. I can get a special deal thru my wife's work. The laptop would come with Vista. Can I install 03 server in a dual boot configuration with Vista? The processor would be 1.7 dual-core with 1 gb RAM (i could upgrade to 2 gb RAM). Anyone kow if this would work for the 293 exercises? Should I post this in a different forum?

You really should look at a virtual machine solution (in combination with the Vista laptop) here is another thread where some options are suggested: http://www.techexams.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=34881

I would go with Microsoft's VirtualPC. It's very easy to use (compared with Virtual server or VMWare) and it does the job. You can set up a W2003 DC and allocate about 256 mb of system memory to it and be OK. On my desktop PC I have several servers and workstations set up this way in one big training environment.
