SharePoint 2010 and VirtualBox

Others have mentioned this already but I just wanted to give my vote of support also...need to run SharePoint 2010 but only have a 32 bit OS host? If your equipment can run 64 bit OS (check out your computer's Windows Experience page details report in the "View and Print Details" link - under system there's a setting for "64 bit capable", hope it's a yes!!) - then check out Sun's Virtual Box tool.

Virtual Box is similar to VMWare, both of which allow you to run a 64 bit guest on a 32 bit OS, provided your computer is 64 bit capable. Nice!

Now just hang in there a few more weeks until the public beta is released!!
