Not necessarily. Virtual Box is really easy.
You still need a copy of Windows for each VM so it might not save you
anything versus a stack of little low power PC's.

Oh yea, and the point was to avoid learning something. I have got to
think that a VM is going to introduce a whole lot of that.

This is a bright group so I wanted to see if this is something worth
doing or maybe worth avoiding. I really don't want to get Windows
server 2012 and try to figure out the while terminal services thing
with licensing. I was thinking it might just be easier since I only
need one or two people to remote in just to get some headless PC's
and sit them in a corner somewhere.
Probably a bad idea but any thoughts?
