Hi Kevin,

I use Virtual PC (on Win7EE) for several appliances at the local high school. As long as there are pure M$ Apps it is fine enough. However, it makes trouble with any kind of linux derivates (S.U.S.E., Ubuntu, Red Hat).

Therefore I am looking for alternatives...like Sun's Virtual Box. So...do you use Virtual Box with Linux and Win7 as base system? And if so, is it working well or are there any glitches?

>I used VMWare for quite a long time. It's a great product - but for many developers, VirtualBox works fine. (While there's no official benchmark to support this, some have commented that VirtualBox actually "seems" a tiny bit faster than VMWare. My own naked eye sense, so far, is that I can't tell the difference in performance. What's significant is that they could be in the same league).

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place.
Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are,
by definition, not smart enough to debug it.
