Virtual PC On Vista

Will Vista support Virtual PC? I am not interested in the Virtual Server. I want to create several testing builds of vista inside the main system so I can perform tests etc without causing the core system corruption.

So far, whats known about Virtual PC and Vista, is that the Enterprise and Ultimate Editions will support an Express Edition of Virtual PC, that can only run one guest operating system. I personally suspect we will see an updated version of Virtual PC though that supports Vista. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta

Yeh, essentially from what I've heard and seen, it'll be the same interface as Virtual PC 2004 except instead of having the window with your available OS's there, you'll simply have a "Connect" or "Activate" button which kick starts the guest OS.
