It is actually pretty simple. Only hardware requirement, your CPU needs to support the hadware virtualization extensions (recent Intel and AMD cpu's have that). If you have that you start the virtualization manager point it to a .iso image of a Windows install CD and you are ready. The rest works the same as virtualizing Linux.

When you talk about recent processors in the Intel or AMD realm, do you, or does anyone else on this list, have practical experience with the virtualization extentions on HP or Dell or other Quad Xeon or Multi-CPU AMD boxes ?
I don't know exactly what to ask in terms of best bang for the buck for processor(s) speed or memory installed, yet I would be interested in hearing what others are using and how well you are enjoying virtualization on the boxes
Using XEN or Vmware or Both?
Thanks!
