I have ordered the DVD of Windows Vista Beta2, 32-bit, although 64-bit is
included. I have been exploring whether to use the Vista dual boot feature
so I can retain XP on the same computer, separate partition, or use
third-party software, such as BootUS, which is an alternative. Now I am
looking at a virtual machine from VMWare company, which has a 30-day
evaluation copy available. I have an external hard-drive and Acronis True
Image to image my current XP edition so that I can experiment a little with
the beta.
But what is the best alternative for loading the beta: Vista dual boot,
third-party (BootUS), or a virtual machine? I'm not in a position to load
onto a second, internal hard-drive.
