No should be fine, Had a bit of a disaster with the laptop I was planning to use for the demo on Saturday morning, it suddenly developed a resistance to doing anything useful. Tools that I generally find work reliably started crashing, hard lockups on certain operations (always repeatable if I try and download updates with anything other than aptitude)
Fortunately a quick hard drive swap into my main laptop (which usually runs vista) and a bit of tweakage to Xorg got me working again (thank goodness they were both SATA)
Dunno what is wrong my my other machine though (passes memtest86+)..it has never been that happy with Linux (evil via unichrome chipset, avoid on a laptop at all costs) but now it is unstable to the point of not really being usable.
