I use VMWare for testing, sandboxes, security, and lots more. Carl Tyler, at Instant Technologies, is a strong supporter of VMware and has been a speaker on the technology numerous times.

I received a news letter today announcing yet another free tool from VMWare …

I have not tried this yet but will be doing so over the next week or so (as time permits). This could be a great way to take “snapshots” of my servers and make them into virtual machines for consolidation and upgrade testing.
