I know I am a bit late to the game on this subject, but our team has begun making
extensive use of MS
Virtual PC for development environments.
This is a new world! I love having a baseline image and working from there for individual
projects. We recently purchased some portable
USB hard drives for the team and this has made carrying virtual machines with
our laptops MUCH easier.
Our team is able to share images since we all use the same base image and just add
differenced hard drive images to it.
GREAT TECHNOLOGY!
