One thing I forgot to mention. If you are planning to dual boot then install Windows first and leave some space for Linux unallocated. Install Linux in the unallocated space and most distros will automatically setup the dual boot with Windows. If you install Linux first, then Windows you will have to install a boot manager to dual boot.
