Give Vista or any other OS a try without killing XP

by Jason Bean on February 26th, 2007

Do you currently have XP, and even after reading about Vista’s most annoying “features”, you’d still like to try it out? You can download Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 and give things a whirl.

The latest version of Microsoft’s virtualization software is now available as a free download from Microsoft’s website.

Virtual PC 2007 is a powerful software virtualization solution that allows you to run multiple PC-based operating systems simultaneously on one workstation, providing a safety net to maintain compatibility with legacy applications while you migrate to a new operating system. It also saves reconfiguration time, so your support, development, and training staff can work more efficiently.

Let me know how it goes and what you think of the software.
