I find QEMU a good program (although imperfect) to consolidate PCs/OSes, but I haven't tested the alternatives (e.g. rr likes BOCHS, but I hear it's too slow). Japheth mentioned VirtualBox, but without knowing if it's better than QEMU, I haven't bothered. Some people like VMware, too (you + Vista?). And VirtualPC won't install on Vista Home. Oh well. :-)

P.S. The main reason I got a laptop instead of a desktop was to save space. I don't travel that much, just didn't want to have yet more clutter. (But there are mini towers which look nice as far as size goes. Too bad the ultra-big monitors these days negate any space savings!) :-P
