Hi All,
I am interested in building a Virtual Machine running under Win7/64.
Have just tried Oracle VM VirtualBox, but despite quite a bit of effort, have failed to- Attach to an external USB flash drive- Failed to export a Win7/32 image to another VirtualBox machine (of the same version !).Each of these failures are described in the forums as 'common issues', which I find astonishing.

May be time to find another contender; brief specs:- Host : Win7/64- Guests : Win7/32, Ubunto/32- At least 4 guest-instances execution- Headless operation possible
- Well supported at forum level- Simple operation
- Less than NZ$100, for a three installations, with perpetual-license
- Reliable
And of course Virtual Box appear to meet all of these criteria except the last...
Any recommendations for product which meet the above criteria ?
