I have a VMware Desktop running on Windows 7 64 Bit with 10 GB of Ram. I have a Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise running and also Windows 2008 R2 Web Server. I also have Virtual Box installed and decided to load Chrome OS which did not impress me. I would like to get ESXi but it would not install for some reason can not remember error. The machine I am running this on is Dell M6400 Laptop, and I would like to maybe use and experiment with provisioning with a 2 TB external drive. Anybody have comments more the merrier. I am also going to read all comments to see where I might have made a mistake. Thanks.
