Would I be correct in assuming that if I have a dual boot XP / Vista setup, I can't have these two existing installs running concurrently, sharing the same hardware?
The only way two OSs can run is by using a Virtual machine (basically a PC emulator) inside an existing running OS?
What would be the typical use of such virtual machines? Is it possible to save the state of these Virtual machines, so it doesn't revert to a clean windows install everytime?
I'll have more questions as soon as i think them up

Edit:- I would have to install windows for each VM i wish to use, correct? I couldn't just use my current Vista intall without messing it up, right?
