[THIN] Re: OT - VM sizing for testing

And that is what I am trying to say. You can easily get away with a 10 gig
drive for Windows XP but it will be way too small for Vista. Then you have
to consider what's going to be installed? Office? Applications like the
Adobe CS3 suite or Visual Suites can chew up a lot of disk space really
fast.

Thanks for the clarification Joe.

However, I am specifically considering the size of the virtual hard
disk in this exercise.

And a few different hosting platforms.

I am not focusing on the performance of the VM itself - a bit different
angle.

(You will all be putting the pieces together soon enough ;-) )

However, if you care to share your experience - I can always add
configurations to my matrix for other uses.
I am always trying to find legitimate and 'real world' configuration
examples to ground things.
