Re: Info on hardware?

How many VMs do u usually run on your machine?
My idea was to start getting used to Server 2008 in AD and maybe a bit
more.. do you think a laptop is able to run 3 machines.. for example 1 AD
2008 + Exchange + a client such as Win XP or Vista?

Greetings,
I'm interested in getting a notebook T7500 with 4GB of RAM..
Does anyone use vmware or virtual pc with a notebook? Is it worth it or
better use a desktop?
Thinking mostly for server 2008, exchange 2007 and maybe sharepoint cert..
for training and testing... any opinions

Thanks in advance

Yeah, loads of people use it for testing and demonstration purpses.
It's utterly irrelevant which one you use really although if you've
got MSDN you'l want to use VMware so you can have 64bit guests and not
have the anoying message about E2K7 being out of license (even though
it won't stop or anything). Entirely up to you.
