I've always been an FFXI fan, although I don't have as much time to play it now as I once did. I've played WoW too, my account is currently inactive, quit last year @ lvl 67, then picked it up a bit back at the end of the summer to hit 70 (and get a flying mount!), I had fun playing to 70, but I've ...

I use Virtual PC 2007 as well at work. It's very sweet. I have an XP VM running inside Vista. Doesn't slow down the host at all. The VM runs fairly well too.

Running on a Lenovo R61, 2GB RAM, 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo, 160GB Sata HDD.
