I'm sure your friends heard of it, but he
could try
vmware or virtualpc.
Gives kinda the same thing... But not. Depends
how
releastic he wants it to be.
Just trying to help :)

I'm in my 30's and
whilst I can justify my multiple boxes at the
moment, I want my Server
to
be doing as much as possible to
reduce the number of
units.
However
a friend of mine has about 6 PCs running ! I laugh at this I
admit, but
he
does have a good justification:
He wants a configuration that
mirrors
as close as possible the sort
of environment he'll found 'out there' in
actual office environments.
Makes some sense in his case, although this
doesn't involve SS in
any way, shape or form
(yet).
