G, I had this response to my inquiry on the CAC Friends list:  "For awhile I 
had Win7 RC and did use the Virtual Machine (XP) but I realized I couldn't 
print what I created.  I was only able to install software not hardware on 
the Virtual Machine."
Is this the way it works with a dual boot?  Would the XP be a virtual 
machine and not be able to print what I created?  If so I will not have that 
option to consider.
