Weird combinaton eh? well I have recently configured a few dual boot (and some quad boot)  Win 7 and Ubuntu systems, both operating systems are quite nice.  Win 7 is a superior system for almost anybody I find it robust full featured stable and very friendly, none better out there on any platform. One feature is gthe on the fly disk image tool in the maintenance area of Win 7, this is what should be in the MS advertising ! a HUGE breakthrough, we geeks have had some toold for years for disk imaging most of them a pain to use that we have never gotten users to actually use but this is superb!  My Ubuntu experiments prove out that open source is getting much more friendly and less reserved for us Penguin heads, I have maintained a flavor Linux in some for on several machines for years but this one is easy to install for an average user and very robust, as always it’s not soon going to take over the corporate office but it will definately find a  place it it.  I have switched my network diagnostic laptop to include Ubuntu as a choice along with SuSe and Win 7 and Win XP.
