Virtual Server Migration Toolkit (VSMT) Guidelines

I've not used VSMT yet, but keep thinking about it. I have used Ghost a couple times to migrate a machine to a Virtual PC image and now that I know the tricks (local admin password resetting, HAL replacing) it's pretty easy. Using VSMT seems a little complicated, but in the end looks like a more stable and reliable approach.

Yes, VSMT is a really great product, but unfortunately you're right, you do need an understanding of infrastructure to get it setup and working. Great blog, Greg!
lol... Yeah, supported is good. :)
And thanks for the positive feedback..
