DW, you guys tested Opus out on the RC yet? Please do really want to see the next update of Opus hitting the ground running.

Not so useful. The lag between virtual and actual is bad and the current graphics driver is poor. Current VT doesn't permit both host and guest to share the machine's technology and as W7 needs a lot of it just for the desktop - applications inside the VM will miss out. As for security, the integration of the VM into the host means that both OSs have to be locked down to ensure that the machine stays safe.
