I'll second that. I haven't used FreeBSD as a guest yet, but as a host VirtualBox performs very nicely, and (touch wood) I haven't had any problems with using Windows 7 and Windows XP as guests. I'm on amd64 FreeBSD, and I've run both 64-bit and 32-bit Windows guests. -- Sterling (Chip) Camden | sterl...@camdensoftware.com | 2048D/3A978E4F http://camdensoftware.com | http://chipstips.com | http://chipsquips.com
