Will I be able to have a partition on my computer to run Windows Vista and Ubuntu side-by-side?

You can shrink the vista partition from inside Windows Vista by using Disk management.

You can then tell the Ubuntu installer to install them side-by-side.

Note: Please make a backup of any data before messing with partitions.
