Client Virtualization Landscape
Emerging uses:
Employee owned computer
Contractor laptop
Application isolation
Instant on access to applications
Desktop vs. Server Virtualization
Microsoft has been investing agressively in server virtualization
Larger market demand for "pure virtualization" on the server
Microsoft has still been investing in client virtualization (though not as agresssively)

Windows Virtual PC Goals
Provide a seamless solution for running Windows XP applications on Windows 7 using virtualization
Maintain existing Virtual PC functionality
Virtual PC History
1997 – Virtual PC for Mac 1.0
Focused on running Windows apps on Mac
2001 – Virtual PC 4.0 for Windows
Focused on running legacy applications on Windows 2000 / XP
2003 – Microsoft Virtual PC 2004
Two primary markets: Legacy application compatibility in the Enterprise and Development / Testing
2007 – Microsoft Virtual PC 2007
Add support for 64-bit hosts, hardware virtualization
Press on Application Compatibility
“When Windows 7 is released later this year or in early 2010,Microsoft Office Pro 2010, many PC users who upgrade will be coming from Windows XP”
“But what if Windows 7 had perfect Windows XP compatibility?”
- ZDNet
- PCWorld
“So XP users, unite: Are you going to clamor for extended support? Plan for a Windows 7 migration now?”
“Still,Office 2007 Serial, one of the major complaints against Vista aside from the lack of drivers and its significantly higher hardware requirements is its Windows XP compatibility”
- IT Knowledge Exchange
- ZDNet
Virtual PC 7 Features
