Default New Laptop data transfer and Win 7

Hi, finally replacing my 5 year old acer for similar. Would like to keep XP
and all my data on C and D drive and put the new OS (Win 7) on a new E drive
and have the choice to use either OS, at start up presumably. Any ideas how
I would go about setting this up? Would just an external enclosure do the
trick, just run XP on that? Would the programmes still work (which is why
I'm doing this)?

Also any comments about Win 7? Haven't heard too much so I guess its
alright, at least compared to the disaster which was the Vista lauch from my
POV?
