Gotcha, thanks Tim.
I have to say, I've been really impressed with VirtualBox! My usage
has been minimal (played through Myst and Riven in a Win98
virtualbox!) but it's worked very well. I also like Parallels
Desktop for Mac, but am getting tired of the upgrade train! Had to
upgrade to version 4.0 when Snow Leopard came out, and now there's
a version 5.0 out.
Thanks,
Scott

Scott,
As for the Windows 7 XP VM, it sucks in comparison to Sun's
VirtualBox or
VMware. I myself have both Windows XP mode VM installed and Sun's
VirtualBox
installed. I use Sun VirtualBox for all my XP needs. Reason I
need XP is
the Works Database is not 100% compatible with Windows 7's way of
networking.

Subject: [H] XP VM (was Re: Laptop processor)
I have no experience with the XP VM in Windows7 and have tried
only a
small number of programs on Win7 (and all have worked fine). Is
the XP
VM needed for much--are there many programs that don't work?

VMware will work with XP mode (I have done it on several

as I can get it from MS. It imports and clones XP VM.

You need ABOVE Win7 Home Premium to "apply"...
But even then, I think you are locked out.
XP-Mode is "embedded". I doubt MS lets it be used in the way you
want.

Interesting...does that mean that if I wanted to download the
"free
XP" with
the P7450, I could not? And use VMware?

So the P8400 has 130MHz and Intel VT over the P7450.
