Jerry, >From http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/support/faq.aspx What is Windows XP Mode? Windows XP Mode is a new benefit of Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Ultimate and provides additional application compatibility. It allows you to install and run many of your productivity applications for Windows XP directly from your Windows 7-based PC. It utilizes virtualization technology, such as Windows Virtual PC, to provide a virtual Windows XP environment for Windows 7. So, Yes. XP Mode is Windows XP, you use it as if it is physical hardware you have a remote desktop connection to. I like VMware Workstation and Virtual PC solutions because you have multiple machines, multiple OS versions, save points to revert back to. I don't see that as an option of XP Mode.
