For those interested in further exploration of Virtualisation  this sounds pretty interesting. The link takes you to the Wikipedia entry while this takes you to the QEMU page.
Thanks, corrected the error

Your first link has one too many 'http://'; in it, try QEMUw.

I use QEMU for quick PE build and live Linux tests but still find a full VM a lot better for PC setup.

The holy grail has been found!

Thanks to tinjaw for posting about Paragon Virtualization Manager 2010, which is capable of doing a lot of nice stuff: p2p, p2v and v2p. I've success done a couple of v2p transfers from vmware to physical hardware, deploying the image to my test machine and, after verifying the basics, now also my laptop (which I use daily). Seems to work just perfectly, so if nothing bad happens I'll do an even more elaborate setup for my workstation - 5 days until the Win7 RC runs out, so I'm in a bit of a hurry :P
