On the SVN Windows binaries download page, there are a few to choose from:

Are there pros and cons to the different versions provided by the different organizations? Is there anything I should look out for?
Mainly, I just want something free that I will be running off my Vista laptop. Then I will probably do backups of the SVN files from time to time to an external hard drive.

VisualSVN Server has reached more than 3,000,000 downloads and it's the most favored way to setup and maintain an Apache Subversion server on the Windows platform. It is certified for Windows Server and trusted both by thousands of SMBs and Fortune 500 companies such as General Electric, Siemens, ThyssenKrupp and Sony.
VisualSVN Server is a freeware Apache Subversion server package for Windows. The package is designed and implemented to provide Subversion version control as a first class citizen application in an Active Directory environment.
All standard Subversion client operations can be performed through the Windows user interface.
We chose VisualSVN bec it makes it easy to use windows authentication instead of having a separate SVN user.
Other benefits is an easy to use GUI for permission management and for managing SVN hooks.
The one thing I'm not a real fan of is the web GUI. As far as I know you cannot view web based diffs, so if that makes a difference....

My friends who run a Windows shop speak highly of VisualSVN

I've just configured win32svn server according to this article by Jeff Atwood.
In contrast to VisualSVN win32svn is not so tightly integrated to Windows, orientated on terminal usage and open sourced under Apache License.
