Ah okay. There seems to be issues, but this thread seems to show more
success, or least doesn't mention any big problem.

Have you tried the VirtualPC newsgroup?

Remove it an. joke is on me. Screw Vista.... I try to get his PoS to do
something and it is aggravation.

What a PoS. **** me off. This is for gramdma's with good eyesight that
just want email and porm.

What kind of crack do they server in Redmond anyway?

Virtual PC 2007 SUCKS. I would not give it to my worst enemy for I would be
killed.

VMWare or nada.

The more i look at Vista, what a sad joke on a lot of people.

Call me when SP 9 is out. This is ****ing me off, can't get Samba working
either without promiscuous shares that make happy hooker look like a virgin.

Oh, Vista, creating drunks everywhere,

VMWare Server requires IIS, PoS serving Admin access since inception,
something like wsftp. Not all of use want down that hole.

But I do agree, so far VMWare Workstation seems best. But Vista is unstable
like a crack whore. SP1 did solve some performance issues and some network
issues, but too little to late comes to mind. Now I know why they call it
glass, it breaks easy.

Mark me one ****ed off MS customer at the moment,.

VirtualBox, were much nicer. Loaded OpenBSD and Solaris fantastic. Now on
to do some Linux.

Much better than Virtual PC 2007....which is already uninstalled.

Thanks for the tip.
