VMware is not an option. We use the laptops for embedded systems development.
Most Semiconductor companies  still require you use Windows for their intrisic
Integrated Development Environments for firmware development on their products.
Furthermore, using low level connected devices such as BDM, JTAG and In-circuit
emulators require a full Windows OS.


Vmware may work in some cases, but often it's not supported by the aforementioned
vendors, so you are stuck with XP or Vista, hardware dongles and such........


thanks for the suggestion.
