Microsoft Launches VHD Evaluation Program

OK, this is really cool.  As of today Microsoft is providing virtual hard disks with evaluation versions of Microsoft Software pre-installed.  This means that you can download virtual machines and try out complex server software without the need to set up anything.

Further to this Microsoft is providing a way for partners build their own software evaluation virtual machines with Microsoft software.
