I did exactly that ( on Windows 7 RC ) with no problem and then again on Windows 7 ultimate. SQL Server will need SP1 before you can use it ( at least for Win 7 but I'd install it anyway )
Just make sure you go through the install carefully an pick the full install that give you all the tools and BOL.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
