Running SBS under Virtual PC
I downloaded the trial version of Virtual PC and installed a full SBS instance under it:
Next step - I will create a number of Windows XP workstations, so my server won't be alone in this cruel world :-)
This is interesting, I can set up the IT infrastructure of a small business under Virtual PC! But seriously now, this is useful to exercise my ultimate scenario: backup and disaster recovery of an SBS under Virtual PC. Hopefully this will make it into another blog post.

I reserved 512 MB. The server itself (hosting the Virtual PC instance) has 1 GB of memory.
Thanks, Adi
