This machine is pretty skimpy on the RAM. I thought 1GB would be plenty when i bought it, but i found when i had CF, SQLServer, Apache, Anti Virus, Outlook, Dreamweaver, and a couple of browsers etc all going at once it slowed down to a crawl.
Will setting up VMs make that situation worse? (yes i know the answer is to get more RAM, but my Chairman of Finance reckons fixing the brakes on the car and new curtains in the living room take priority.) When you switch from one VM to another, does it put the unused machine to sleep and release it's RAM for use by the other machine?
