Just wanted to know if both of these are fully compatible with Ubuntu? If only specific versions of Ubuntu are compatible, then which ones?

Matters I am more concerned about are:

1) Affect on battery life for both?

2) Dual boot without the need to re-install Windows (don't want to use pirated copy) on a separate partition? I can definitely re-partition using partition Magic/EaseUS.

3) Also, I would not prefer keeping my OS's on SSD (in case of 14z ultra-book)

It would be a great help, as I am considering to buy one of these with prime reason of Ubuntu.

I have an Inspiron 530 with a stock PSU.
