VMWare has a 40 day trial version for download
Ok, kind of new to this, what exactly is one of the virtual server bits of software going to do for me? Sorry to be dumb, I have just never needed to do this before.

Basically I have a module of my course that is about installing and administering 2003 server so want it to play with on my machine, but want to be able to get shot of it later when i am done with it doing no harm to my XP install.

PC I have is Athlon XP2000 with 1gig of RAM.
