Thanks, and I'm glad to be here. I'll probably only post when something comes across my RSS that interests me though. Which may be a lot.

Have a great weekend

You should stop by the Roll Call area, start a thread and introduce yourself to us all.

Go to the doctor and get a "you've got the new flu" ... hope she was joking.

Naughty little boy.................just come clean and ask her for a date

What is her "bedside manner" like?............that's when you kick them out to make you a cup of tea

In answer to your question...............

It will work on a 2GHz with 1Gb of PC 2700 and a 128Mb video card.

I have not tried it on lesser installations, but do watch the RAM....... A VM uses it in a different way from a single install

Vista should be thrown into room 101 for rest of time, and everyone who got sucker into using Vista should be given free Windows 7 and free therapy sessions too.

How different are we talking?

It takes a chunk of the Ram on the Host PC and the VM takes it fully and then the VM OS uses as needed, what difference is there ...

[nihil]

The basic difference is that VMs run concurrently whereas multiboot systems run consecutively. Each loaded VM takes resource, plus a certain amount of overhead.

If you want to use the XP Mode feature (which runs in a VM), Microsoft recommend that you have an additional 1Gb of RAM. That sounds about right to me, as XP SP3 seems quite happy with 1Gb.

I am talking pretty minimal 32bit systems here, such as you might expect to find in a SOHO environment (around here anyways). That would be word processing, accounts, spreadsheets, databases, e-mail, internet, and other business type software.

I think that you can trust Microsoft's requirements specifications if you bear in mind that they will be aimed at average domestic and office environments.
