I've been thinking of installing a VM on my vista machine so I can make a backup image in the event of a virus or crash. I'm assuming that VMs will need to use the host machines devices and drivers so it seems like a good idea for making backup images.
I was also wondering if a VM session was infected with a virus would it spread to the host machine?
Is it possible to run servers from within VMs?
Is it practical or would it be too taxing on the host machine? I've been wanting to install Exhange and Server 2008, I was thinking VMs might be the way to go.
