[AccessD] Using a VM/VPC

I like VPC and Virtual Server 2005.... best feature, they are both free,
and interchangeable.

I use VMWare and am neutral on recommending it.  It works well, is easy
to set up.  My biggest issue 
was a huge problem getting the VMs to attach to the physical NIC when
using Hamachi.  For whatever 
reason the host software (which controls the NIC bindings) gravitate
towards the Hamachi NICS.  It 
is a not well known phenomenon which took me ages to figure out.

Other than that, I use them still and recommend VMs in general.
