A. Yes you can dual boot,boot from disc for install and dont replace it over an different OS.
So clean install.

B. dont know this one.

For the rest everything works okay(It did here).

You can duel boot

I'm pretty sure they fixed the music problem just after it hit beta. Even before that though it doesn't always delete bits of your music, it's something to do with untagged/poorly tagged music. It tries to fill in the tag and corrupts it. My brother had no problems, and he tried it pre-beta, and is now on the beta.

As for the difference between this and vista, it's very similar with a different skin, but they've massively turned down the UAC.

Important question - if you do dual boot then, when the beta period ends and the OS would normally say 'You must now reinstall a legal OS', will it also stuff up your bootloader so you can't get into your 'main' OS either?
