Re: [Xen-users] xen Paravirtualization for WinXP or WinVista on AMD Phenom x4

Keith...

Thank you for your rapid reponse.  It almost looks too easy...not 
Linux-ey at all.  I will dive in after the weekend.
FWIW, I am already running VMWare Workstation on my laptop, so will be 
interested in comparing the two environments WRT performance, usability, 
etc.
Best,
David
