As I might have mentioned in my other posts as well, that I use Virtual Machines a lot!!
I love snapshot feature in Virtual Machine softwares, like Microsoft Hyper-V and VMWare Workstation! My repository goes something like this,
- Windows XP 32 bit - Base OS (with SP2)
- Windows XP 32 bit - Visual Studio 2003
- Windows XP 32 bit - Visual Studio 2005
- Windows XP 32 bit - Visual Studio 2008
- Windows 2003 Server - Base OS
- Windows 2003 Server - Base OS (with SP2)
- Windows Vista 32 bit - Base OS (with SP1)
- Windows Vista 32 bit - Visual Studio 2005
- Windows Vista 32 bit - Visual Studio 2008
- Windows XP 64 bit - Base OS (with SP2)
- Windows XP 64 bit - Visual Studio 2005
- Windows XP 64 bit - Visual Studio 2008
- Windows Vista 64 bit - Base OS (with SP1)
- Windows Vista 64 bit - Visual Studio 2008
This entire virtual machine jungle eats up almost 80 GB of my hard drive, but I think its worth it!
Because of various environment I have to work with on every single day, Virtual Machines is the only thing that can help me. Sometimes, I wonder if there would be no Virtualization technology, how would I work!
Stay tuned..
