    I just got my Vista Business Upgrade but I don't want to install it on my T60 since I really love the 6 hour battery life on my baby. I'd like to install the Vista Business Upgrade on my desktop. Would it work even though it's not a Lenovo?

    Legally no, as it is an OEM copy tied to your laptop, and most likely would not work anyway as Levono most likely has a program built into that CD to check what computer it is being run on.
