Now that I have a shiny new Windows 7 install I was looking for ways to create a Virtual Image for SharePoint development on my Laptop as I really don't want to run Server and Hyper-V. After looking into the new XP Mode for Windows 7 I thought that surely the new Windows VIrtual PC must be able to run a server image. Sure enough Windows Virtual PC integrates really well with Windows 7 and best of all you can even create a Server Virtual image the only limitations I have found so far is that you can only use 32 bit OS's and a Single CPU so no SharePoint 2010.
