I want to get a copy of Vista on my laptop that allows for the use of
Virtual PC, but still upgrade and keep my present system installed.

Any suggestions that don't cost an arm and a leg?

Hi,

Virtual PC will run on Vista Home versions, it's just not supported. Before
you spend any money, try it.

Vista Home Basic will only upgrade to Home Premium or Ultimate.
