Microsoft has submitted "Virtual PC 2007 RC1" to public domain. The Virtual PC product will continue to be completely free, also when it's launched in final release. The two greatest things about the 2007 release vs. the 2004 is ..
- It will run on Vista (as host Operating System)
- It will let you install Vista as Guest OS, which means you can install Vista on a virtual machine and test everything you need BEFORE actually installing Vista on your PC - and, ohhh, by the way - Despite popular belief, it actually *is* possible to debug in VS.NET 2005 SP1 on Vista - Check out [1] [2] if you're having this issue (too!).
