Default Carpet over Wood Flooring

I want to install some carpet over laminate wood flooring in my house,
and i've read a lot of horror stories about how people couldn't get the
staples out of the wood if you ever changed your mind, so i was
wondering if there's a better way to install the carpet so that there
isn't damage to the wood flooring below. any ideas???

Default Carpet over Wood Flooring

I think the laminate will be destroyed by the nailing/stapling process
of carpetting. I removed a bunch of carpet from over hardwood flooring
(oak) and had no trouble getting out nails and staples. Carpet is just
so skanky
