Handy tip for Vista virtual machines
If you regularly build virtual machines for testing - and delete them within 30-days of creation - then there is something you should know about installing Vista. You can skip the option of entering a serial number - and you will just get a 30 day trial installation.
Now you no longer need to memorize your serial number so you can type it in each time :-)
Obviously if you intend to use the virtual machine for longer then 30 days, you are going to need to provide a serial number and activate the installation.
Cheers,
Ben
