All of my real work is done in Virtualbox VMs using both 32-bit NT and 64-bit Win 7. The only problem I've had recently is that my dual monitor Win 7 VM tends to 'abort' about 40% of the time when starting. Once it's up and running it's fine, but getting it started on any day is pretty much hit-or-miss. HTH, Mark
