Windows 7 question

I didn't find a newsgroup (other than in Italian) for Windows 7 so I'll ask
my questions here.

I have installed Win 7, Build 7100 on a spare drive. I wonder if it's
possible to install it as a dual boot with XP until it's prudent to give up
XP completely. My real interest is if I can have my source documents (Word,
Excel, Windows Live Mail) in a location shared by both systems since it
would all be on the same hard disk.

My hope is that I could boot either under XP or Win7 and after installing
the proper software on each O/S, be able to access the same documents from
either side.

TIA,

Tom
 
See Ðнгел's reply.

PS: You understand that you will have to uninstall Win7 Beta eventually,
right?
