Win7pro 2.5gb ram & virtualbox seems to work just fine. I recently installed debian in virtualbox, I had to installed the development stuff in order to get virualbox guest additions to work. otherwise you wont be able to change the screen resolution in debian.<br>

I need to start working back in the windows world. I pretty much did<br>
nothing with Vista. It pissed me off right from the start, so I just<br>
decided not to use it. I skipped it entirely. Now I need to get back<br>
into the groove.<br>

I know this will probably make some people just cringe, but I'm betting<br>
that it will be a faster/easier learning curve to run Linux in a VM on<br>
7, rather than 7 in a VM on linux, especially with a some brand new<br>
hardware.<br>
