It is. Although I haven't boot Vista for a couple of month. Last time my ki=

I'm using Arconis True Image in my Windows environment. Therefor I used it =
also for shrinking the Windows partition. So I can't tell you, if OpenSuse =

I don't know if openSuse is working fine on your Sony VGN_NR21M. Have a loo=
k at http://tuxmobil.org/sony.html or http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/sony.=

And for a quick test you can download the LiveCD.
