  If you install it in a VPC image there's 100% protection for your host
  operating system. The VPC image itself is the one that has to "worry."
  That's the beauty of Virtual PC.   :)

  Subject: [padnug] Visual Studio 2005 Beta 1 refresh installation



  Can someone give me advice on this before I do it so that I don't hurt
  myself?

  I want to install the Visual Studio 2005 Beta 1 refresh that we got on
  the DVD that MS gave us at the last MSDN meeting. I put Vitrual PC 2004
  on my laptop (I have 2G bytes of memory). I want to run the Beta 1
  refresh on the virutal computer.

  The first screen for install (which I have not gone beyond yet) cautions
  me that I should not expect anything and that I should not install on a
  computer that means anything to me and that I should be prepared to
  reformat my drive. Wow.  How serious is this caution? How much
  protection does installing on a vitual machine give me?

  Thanks.
  -Ted
