I thought that this thread sounded interesting so I had a go creating several vmware images. The first was an Ubuntu which weighed in at over 500 mb (all sizes are the 'used' portion from df -h), which then stopped working (I think I _may_ have deleted the kernel image while trying to save space).

Michael, It's a great idea, but the images do seem a little large - if you're running only python and sqlite, would one of the smaller distributions not be more suitable as a base? There are plenty of floppy and business-card distributions out there which are around 70mb (Damn Small Linux springs

Personally I use a custom uniform server (http://sourceforge.net/projects/miniserver) which is basically a zip-file that you unpack on your Win32 windows system, and you're ready to django. This way you get apache2/mysql/phpmyadmin/etc. and django running in no time. To me that seems easier than
