Dancer - if you're really good friends and neither of you are money-grabbing, overly incompetent or overly fastidious/fascist and if your roles don't completely overlap (so are therefore redundant), then I'd say go for it. Problems between friends only really arise when one partner slackens, or the effort/input balance slides, or one suffers from constant 'hyper glycaemic lows' and becomes a complete twat in the afternoon. Sorry, rambled a bit at the end there.
Suffice to say - if your roles are clearly delineated and you can agree the investment/reward structures in advance, I'd say go for it. When it works well, I can't think of anything better than starting a company with a good friend. If it does go sour, then perhaps the friendship isn't as valued as you thought it was.
imo, obviously.
