VirtualBox. Free. Excellent performance. Good compatibility. VirtualPC has
the nasty habit of blue screening Windows from time to time, very annoying.
With VBox this never happens. The problem with VMWare is that remote access
is very inefficient. It's almost unusable over a slow connection. VBox uses
standard RDP. Does VPC even allow native remote access, or do you have to
have a server running in the guest os, like vnc or pcaw, etc.?
