Im using windows 7 and want to eventually setup a few VM's to have a virtual network on the go to help with studying for my Microsoft Exams.

I'm just not sure which software to use, ive used the microsoft option but heard of vurtualbox and vmware. whats the general concesus?
 
yeah and my middle finger is here, and raised.

ive already read that thread which i why i asked the question, because im looking to get a full blown virtual network with numerous servers and clients working not just a few standalone machines, thats why i asked in case some piece of software like VMWare was better suited than that.
 
thanks Azagoth, ill do that right now.

I see your interests are "Aircraft and Computers", thats cool cos me too! thats right i'm a loser virgin too, maybe sometime we can get together and discuss aircraft and maybe go to an aircraft museum or browse wikipedia together and admire some really cool aircraft, im a big fan of the 747's myself. I bet you're more of a Lancaster Bomber man aren't you?

Oh and whats your "rig" spec and best 3d mark score cos i bet you've got those written down on a piece of paper in your wallet ready to bust out on the ladies when you occasionally venture outside haven't you?
 
maybe so but i just wanted a helpful response, instead i first get the "look, heres the search button" line and told to read a thread which id already seen and decided didnt help me all too much and had spent a few minutes already flicking over some other search results and didnt find a clear enough answer in my opinion to warrant not starting a new post.

Then upon realising id posted in General Discussion by accident and doing the unthinkable and for a moment there thinking that there could actually be a "delete thread" option, i get some nerd giving it thinking hes billy big balls.

And im sorry i didnt realise the number of posts you've made determines how much help you can expect.

On topic, thanks for the response, although i wanted to avoid downloading and testing each one individually, but on another post it seems VirtualBox seems to pretty popular from what ive heard so im probably go with that as i was originally thinking VMWare was going to be better suited for what i wanted to do.

i do like a good rant tho, ill leave you gents in peace now.
