Add me to the VMWare crowd. I use it every time I do a demo. My laptop
came from Oracle with WinXP on it, I run Linux, WinXP and Win2K Server
VMs depending on which demo I want to run.
Sometimes running the WinXP VM with Oracle EE database, Oracle EE
Application Server, Oracle BPEL Server, Oracle XML Publisher, Oracle
Forms, Oracle Reports and Oracle Discoverer can be a bit slow. Generally
we recommend putting that much software on more than one machine or at
least one machine with more power than my laptop: Dell D600 1.6 MHz, 2GB
Ram, 80 GB HD with 250GB USB drive to hold all the VMs (some of them are
40+ GB in size).
VM 5.5 for me.

Has anyone got multiple OSes running simultaneously on their personal

and Linux (more client work, home & hobby), and I'd like to be able to
toggle between the two rather than a slow reboot.
Anyone doing this? What VM manager are you using? What host OS? Tips?
Reviews? Pans? Warnings?
