Virtual PC
I’ve been installing Windows XP on a Virtual Machine (MS Virtual PC 2007 - free). This has been a fun experience so far; I’ve a few points of experience to submit to any reader dropping by.
- Set network connection to “NAT (Shared Network)” in order to use the host computer’s network.
- Install “Virtual Machine Additions” in order to get (mouse)pointer integration and the ability to share a folder from the host system.
- Connecting by Remote Desktop to the host computer from the Virtual PC, stealing your own console is funny - but only after you get in control of your computer again.
/me is installing security updates for XP right now.
