A customer wants wot make xyz work with abc in his specific environment. So I build the system in a VMWare session and prove it works before going out to the site and implimenting the change, a nice way to do things on a limited budget. Also, I have pre-built machines in a virtual lab that I use to test new software for campatibility reasons etc.
Sounds like you're using the right tool for the job then. VMWare is good for that. Especially with it's HDD changes rollback support. Makes testing very easy. ...
I did a short stint where people were doing exactly what Gund plans to do. 2 GB barely cut it. I remember Oliver, you said you might have a look at UML. Did you have the chance? How did it go? Cheers, Sid.
