Plan sounds good but doesn't leave much room for allocating more resources if necessary. You should combine the ARS and Mid tier. That way you save some overhead as well. VMware workstation is the way to go.

So currently my workstation is Windows 7 64bits i7-920 (4 cores, 8 threads), 15 GB RAM, and tons of HDD. I plan to create packs of three virtual machines, one for Oracle (Cent OS, 4 GB - 2 threads), one for ARS (Windows 2003, 64bits, 6 GB, two threads) and one for mid tier (Windows 2003, 64 bits, 2 GB - one thread), with 3 GB remaining for my OS. One pack of machines for each version of ARS, or client clone. Then I will start only the one I want to work with. First question: What do you think of my plan? Second question: What virtualization technology are you using for these situations? Thanks!
