Just curious why WMWare instead of Microsoft VPC?

It doesn't matter to me, I'm just curious to know more about how/why you made your choice.

On VMWare, is there such a thing as Virtual Machine Additions like VPC has / needs?

FYI to others who may want it, here is a link I had planned to follow to do this on VPC: http://blogs.msdn.com/briankel/archive/2009/01/10/installing-the-windows-7-beta-with-virtual-pc-2007-sp1.aspx

>Virtual Machine Operating System: Windows Vista
>Virtual Machine Memory Size: 1024 MB
>Virtual Machine Disk Size: 10G
>Live CD ISO (checked Yes) and entered the iso file name
