If I download Windows 10 on my mac will all of my files get deleted?
You cannot just download and install Windows on your Mac. To install Windows on your mac you will have to partition your hard drive and then install Windows on that new partition. This will have no effect on your existing OSx. To do this you can use Boot Camp already installed on your Mac or Parallels which you must purchase.

How do you get a hard drive that works on version 10.6 mac on 10.7 mac?
Most brands of hard drive will work with a Mac. If you want to run both Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7 you will need to partition the drive and install a separate operating system into each partition.
If you install Windows 7 on mac with bootcamp can you transfer your mac files to windows if so how?
Yes you can. I am currently using a 2010 iMac, and on my bootcamp partition I have windows 7. When you are logged in the mac partition you can see the bootcamp partition and copy and paste files. I m not sure if you need to install NTFS-3G on mac. Anyway it's free and I suggest you to install it. From windows 7 you should see your machintosh hard drive ( mine is called machintosh) from there you browse usr/username/ ... there you'll find all your folders ) ;)

Can you install more than one operating system in a machine and can you give an example?
Yes. You need to create a Primary partition and then a secondary partition. You'll want to install your main OS on the Primary partition (Windows, Mac, Linux, Novell, ect.) and then put the other OS on the secondary partition (I typically see Linux.) Then you can choose to boot from the primary partition or the secondary partition in the BIOS. The bigger the hard-drive you have the better, and I wouldn't try it with anything less than 100 gigs.

Is it possible to install Linux on a Mac using Boot Camp?
It is possible to install Linux on a Mac using Boot Camp but it can be messy. Option 1: If you have Windows installed is to use the Wubi installer (See links below) to install Linux from within Windows. Option 2: Use Boot Camp to create a Window partition. Boot from the Live CD, run Partition Editor, delete the Windows partition, Run the Installer and install into Free Space. Option 3: Ignore Boot Camp. Run directly from a LiveCD or USB stick. Option 4: Ignore Boot Camp. Run in Virtual Box.
