Thank you for responding again,
I did understand that Virtual PC is a good way to go. In fact I have a fully
licensed version of that as well.
Is there an advantage over having 3 or 4 PC's with the software loaded onto
them? (besides cost)
I am thinking growth here.
I want to have one box running MS exchange and MS SQL server on a windows
2003 Server.
I want to have a windows 2003 Server as my domain controller and my XP client.
