WXPNews Shares Their Vista Install Experience
Debbie over at WXPNews shares her experience with installing with the Vista beta. First she had installed on VirtualPC and VMWare, but took the big leap of faith and installed in a dual-boot configuration with one of her main PC’s.
I’ve installed the private betas of Vista in virtual machines (both Microsoft’s Virtual PC and VMWare). For this public beta, I decide to take the plunge and install it “for real” in a dual boot configuration with XP on one of my two primary computers. That took a leap of faith (if things go wrong in a VM, it doesn’t affect your host operating system; if things go wrong in a dual boot install, you might end up hosing XP). But I crossed my fingers, said a prayer and clicked “Install.”
Read about her full experience on the main site at WXPNews and choose the latest e-mail newsletter. This is a great resource for Windows enthusiasts. I highly recommend it.
