I also use VM's. This is mostly with VMware Virtual Centre and VMware LAB manager at work. I also use Virtual Box a little bit at home, but there is less and less that I need Windows for, so I don't have to fire up my Windows VM so much. If you want, I can join the panel, although I don't have so much experience in the inner of VM's and such, I have an idea on how to use some of them.

I like the panel idea, since I don't feel my knowledge in this area is necessarily comprehensive enough to speak about it on my own, but with others there to contribute and fill in the gaps I think I could help out. Let me know if I can be of assistance.
