From what I can tell in the video, the VM software just runs Windows 8 in something similar to a command prompt window. Is that correct? If so, can you easily switch back and forth from one operating system to the other by simply minimizing the window and Windows 8 will simply continue to run in the background? Also, what happens after Windows 8 is installed? Will my Windows 7 still load automatically after a reboot, and then I have a choice to load Windows 8 via the software? Or upon reboot am I prompted with a boot screen to choose either operating system (similar to a dual boot setup)? I just want to know how accessible it will be for me to use before I go ahead and load it. Thanks The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.
