How can I add a computer vista laptop runningwindows to a homegroup in windows 7

I have a HP PC, the laptop and the laptop running Windows 7. Compaq laptop of my wife is running vista.  I can add to Windows 7 homegroup, or is it easier to upgrade your computer to windows 7?

Vista can't join a homegroup, but it can network with Windows 7.  Please see sharing files and printers with different versions of Windows for more details.
