xfile,

You might explore the below Links for more accurate and reliable
information, in respect to Vista.

You can't do better than obtain technical information from the Source. There
are too many others for listing...

Certain that you have previously explored one or more.

You can visit our Windows Vista website at:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/preview.mspx for news and
updates.

You can also visit our community pages and newsgroups for additional

Hi,

Thanks for the links and I constantly visit MS site for information in
addition to subscribe its various newsletters.

With that said, balance views are always welcome at least for myself so I
will not be bound by one-side story.

Hope that's the same for you.

I certainly won't take one single article (regardless of its origin) as my
final conclusion which I had been taught a century ago.

Thanks for the links.

One concern worth noting relates to license and activation features. The
licenses for the Home ­Basic and Home Premium editions don't let you run Vista
inside a virtual machine, and stricter product activation features will actually
disable Vista installations that Microsoft deems not genuine.

You can still run Vista as a guest OS in vmware or vpc, just install without a key and do not activate. That way you can run a test scenario and get your results and then delete the files.
