Well, this sure looks like a way of turning the BSOD into the BIG BLUE
Screen Of Death.

Granted, the problem I see with this is that Windows isn't likely to
EVER be VM friendly (as I recall there is no license to run it that
way unless Windows is the Host OS) so this might be entertaining as a
means of showing off, but, for production?

I'll grant that a Windows Outage (OK, "OUTLOOK" or "LOOK OUT!") server
would not give you much choice of Operating System to provide "full
service".  (I have, in my current gig, had to jump from Loathed Note
to Outlook...  I agree w/ my son-in-law that switching to PROFS would
not have impacted personal efficiency half as much.)

If you MUST use MicroSoft products and applications you are not
working towards interoperability.  Like a railroad, they've set their
gauge to be just a LITTLE bit off from the other most popular
guages...
