Paul, I agree. I've seen it in action, even installed it on a text box. Problem I have is I need to test real hardware attached to the machine, so it doesn't work well for me. Install testing is still in a VM, though local in Virtual PC. I plan to get that setup on a future purchased laptop to allow demonstration environments. We use the VMWare equivalent for some testing and our build machine.
