It's not just you. Go go 2.8 kb/s!

And I'll be very sad if this doesn't work on Vista Home Premium. So sad, in fact, that I'll have to walk all the way to the other room to use it.

According to the release notes, it only works (for Vista at least) on Ultimate, Business, and Enterprise. As for installing over the RC version, you have to uninstall the RC, then install the release version. You won't lose your virtual machines though, because those are stored in your Documents folder.

Is this any different from the Release Cadiate that has been available on Microsoft Connect for the past few months? If so is there an easy way to update it without losing virtual machines?

I'm wondering the same thing. I've been using the Release Candidate from Connect for a while now, and I've had no problems.

dang it.. I have Home Premium.. Anyone know of any good software, that would allow me to connect to my home pc (running Vista HP) from my work pc ( XP Pro) ? Of course I would love for it to be free.. But if not at low cost?

That's not what Virtual PC does anyway. Perhaps you should be looking at VNC.

I experienced the same slow download speed earlier and finally finished downloading, so I've uploaded Virtual PC 2007 x64 version to my webspace, should make a difference for anyone experiencing slow download speeds from the official download link.

I currently have the x86 version downloading and I'll upload it once the download here is complete.

Hope this helps!

Edit: Here's a link for the x86 version:

How does the Mac version compare to Parallels Desktop?

It's far less advanced, but then again, it also only runs on PowerPC and Parallels only runs on Intel, so it's impossible to directly compare them. Parallels is a virtualizer, but Virtual PC (at least the Mac version) is a hardware emulator.

It doesn't. In fact, they stopped development of it.

Oh, I didn't realize 2004 was the last version.

Hmm... I'll stick with Parallels, then.

    • On the one hand, it shouldn't be difficult. You buy a computer, you decide what OS you want, which browser etc. Simple enough. But that's the techie side of things. My sister, my mother, wouldn't bother with such a thought. And I'm pretty sure that if you presented a window asking them what to pick they would say, "I don't care! I just want to access my Email!"

    • Anyone who expects MS to play fair is a complete idiot.
    • Everyone behaves like Internet Explorer just never happened and Edge is whole new thing all while Microsoft is pulling the exact same ###### it did back then. Sigh.
