Which is better for Server2003 self-training, virtualpc or virtualserver?

Or is it one in the same, really?

I'm just interested in turning my existing box into a self-contained domain
with Server2003 and an XP client machine. Will it make any difference if I
use virtualpc or virtualserver to accomplish this or is virtualserver just
for consolidating server OS?

Thanks,
JM

just run dir from a command prompt. The serial number will appear at
the top of the directory listing.

Hi,

I use Virtual Server for network scenarios where you need a own network
seperated from your local network. If you want to run a guest OS in
background (i.e. Windows 2003 web server) you don't need to run any app with
Virtual Server. Using Virtual PC needs everytime a window opened where you
can see the logon dialog.

Virtual PC does support sound, if you need this? ;)

As a trainer I'd say Virtual server, because You can try routing as well as
create your own networks.

when you are a newby to virtualisation I'd recommend VPC, to get used to
virtual stuff, but as soon a you have the hang of it: go VS2005.

good luck
