Impressive, especially when it's running inside VMware. You should try VirtualBox from Sun. I've been using it for month now, on vista x64 and it's fast and reliable.

Hi, and thanks!:)

I’m really satisfied with Fusion, it seems stable and it’s fast.

Thanks for the tip regarding VirtualBox. I’ve heard that’s a really good virtual machine as well, and I should absolutely take it for a test ride. Which disk format does it support?

My main concern about VirtualPCs nowadays is that they have their own proprietary disk format, which gives us lots of friction when we want to move virtual computers between virtualization platforms.

What hardware is this? I'm having trouble finding (deciding) on what laptop to go for, for my new development environment.

@Steve

The hardware I’m using is a Macbook Aluminum 2,4 GHz, 4GB memory and a Intel X25 SSD Disk. You can read more about my setup here; http://blog.goeran.no/PermaLink,guid,18f93215-1129-458f-91d9-fbb4ce41f1ee.aspx

I’m really satisfied with this setup and I give it my highest recommendations. The Macbook is noticeable faster than my iMac (2,8 GHz, 4GB memory and a 500GB 7200 rpm disk). It’s the best laptop I’ve ever bought, period.
