I prefer VMWare as it provides support for Non-Microsoft Oses which Microsoft seems to have removed from an otherwise excellent product.
We also use the VMWare GSX server to virtualize items that need to be up all the time. Works great. I especially like the Local and NAT network options which allow me to create an Isolated lab without having to dedicate a large quantity of hardware, but lets me keep it invisible from my real network.

I have had good luck with it and the price cannot be beat! VMWare has a couple more bells and whistles but for basic VM's it is nice. I ran my win2k3 server to test live communications server and it ran like a champ. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Hutchings" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 12:34 PM Subject: Microsoft/Connectix Virtual PC - Anyone use it for testing? > Since I don't have the space or hardware for a test lab, but I do have a > Dual Xeon 2.4, 1gb RAM workstation sat on my desk this kinda caught my > eye! > > Does anyone here use it for testing/learning and if so what do you think? > > Any real plus points? > Any real minus points? > Any gotchas? > > We have a select agreement so I'll probably just buy a copy, but it'd be > nice to get some other opinions.. > > TIA, > Paul > > _________________________________________________________________ > List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm > Web Interface: > http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english > To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: > Jupitermedia Corp. > Attn: Discussion List Management > 475 Park Avenue South > New York, NY 10016 > > Please include the email address which you have been contacted with. > _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
