Here are some Virtualization news items that caught my attention this week, but haven’t (as of yet) had a chance to blog in greater detail:

  • Scott Wolf has released another gem with his formal writeup of Easy VMDK conversions with VMDK2VHD - Scott’s the author of the ’scrub script’ from my post VMware to Microsoft Virtual Machine Conversions a few weeks ago
  • FabulaTech have a USB over TCPIP emulator for download (1.6 Mb 15-day trial, one USB device).  I need to use a USB key inside a Virtual Machine with Virtual PC, post later with an update.
  • I’m getting a few questions does  VhdMount work with Vista CompletePC backup.  Short answer yes, yes, yes!!  See Preparing for Vista Backup
  • Ben Armstong has posted a nifty script to get processor information within a virtual machines
  • Alessandro Perilli over at virtualization.info has announced Rent-A-Lab — some heavy duty hardware to test the virtualization scenario of your choice. 

That’s it for now.
