  I ran my system with a VM for many years and it worked perfectly.  Also
found it quite easy to backup ;)

  When my "server" died I cried until Nick threw an old Netvista at me, and
Sean threw a HDD this way.  That is currently running everything and doing
it well!  Now that the "Server" is back and serving files to my network,
I'll probably move the BBS back to a VM on that box just so I don't have to
swap network cables around when I want to print. :)
