Activation mode simply means you have 60 days until the thing dies, right? Then you get to create another one. Not fun, of course, but not impossible. Other than this current issue with WDSC, I don't have a ton of reason to create Windows VMs, although the demo idea is intriguing. That brings up other issue though: I don't even want to think about distributing working Windows environments! Joe
From: richard@xxxxxxxxxxx You can do this. Actually I have zipped several master images and I copy them to my laptop as needed. I can always unzip a fresh copy when I need one. I even have a couple Linux partitions set up for testing. Beware of Windows 2003 and Vista though because they will go into Activation mode as soon as you copy to a different machine. Pain in the butt. I have been using Win2000 to create portable non-activation demo partitions.
