I am doing an experiment. I have installed Virtual PC on my laptop and I have made a virtual pc on my laptop into which I will install my PLC programming software. The purpose is to keep my laptop free from the RLinxs and Siemen bloat that installs services, uses memory and otherwise degrades the performance of my PC when I am not programming PLCs.
Has anyone done this? The question that comes to mind is whether the copy protection will allow this.
Anyway I will try and let you guys know how it turns out.
Our software team team makes virtual pc and uses them to install and test software. If the software is bad we don't uninstall the software, we trash the whole virtual machine so there is nothing left of the effects of the bad software.
Note, a virtual pc is just two files in my My Documents directory so these are easy to back up and restore.
