Is it alright to install 2 different operating systems in one PC? Namely Windows XP and Windows Vista?
My PC Specs are:

Intel Core 2 Duo
E7300 @ 2.66GHz
2.67GHz, 2.00GB or RAM
Physical Address Extension

yeah that prefectly fine, its called Dual-booting. Just make sure when you install them that, XP goes first then Vista.

It may also be a good idea to have a 3rd partition created to store your data files, so if one of the OS's gets corrupted, your data files on the 3rd partition will stay intact.
