Running Vista Ultimate in virtual pc

I have an XP Pro workstation on which I installed Virtual PC 2007 this
evening. The laptop is a T60 with 1 gig of ram. I am planning on
installing Vista Ultimate in Virtual PC.

What I was wondering was Vista Ultimate has a recommended ram
requirement of 1 gig.

Of the 1 gig of ram that my laptop currently has, how do I know how
much will be allocated to the XP host OS and how much will be
allocated to the Vista that is running in Virtual PC?

Thank you

You allocate the memory when you create the virtual machine. A host
computer with only 1 GB of RAM isn't enough to properly run Vista as a
guest.

10.0 times 0.1 is hardly ever 1.0.
