Virtual PC 2004 Product Overview
===============================
Use Microsoft® Virtual PC 2004 to run multiple operating systems at the same
time on the same physical computer. Switch between virtual machines with the
click of a button. Use virtual machines to run legacy applications, provide
support, train users, and enhance quality assurance.

Virtual PC lets you create separate virtual machines on your Windows®
desktop, each of which virtualizes the hardware of a complete physical
computer. Use virtual machines to run operating systems such as MS-DOS®,
Windows, and OS/2. You can run multiple operating systems at once on a
single physical computer and switch between them as easily as switching
applications-instantly, with a mouse click.

Virtual PC is perfect for any scenario in which you need to support multiple
operating systems, whether you use it for tech support, legacy application
support, training, or just for consolidating physical computers.

Benefits
Virtual PC provides a time-saving and cost-saving solution anywhere users
must run multiple operating systems. Use Virtual PC in the following
scenarios:

Ease Migration: Run legacy applications in a virtual machine instead of
delaying the deployment of a new operating system just because of
application incompatibility. Test your migration plans using virtual
machines instead of actual physical computers.

Do More in Less Time: Support staff can run multiple operating systems on a
single physical computer and switch between them easily. They can also
restore virtual machines to their previous state almost instantly. Train
students on multiple operating systems and virtual networks instead of
purchasing and supporting additional computers.

Streamline Deployment: Test software on different operating systems more
easily. One crashing application or operating system doesn't affect others.

Accelerate Development: Increase quality assurance by testing and
documenting your software on multiple operating systems using virtual
machines. Decrease time-to-market by reducing reconfiguration time.
