Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 lags behind competition

  2007-03-15 19:00:04
Microsoft released its Virtual PC (VPC) 2007 virtualization software as freeware recently, and you definitely get what you pay for. VPC 2007 isn't Open Source, nor does it run on Linux. Linux isn't even mentioned as supported guest operating system, but since people have successfully run several Linux distributions through earlier versions of VPC, I decided to give it a go. After several hours of struggle, I found out why VPC 2007 doesn't claim to support Linux distros.
