Anyone tried this yet? I'm installing now, since I need to test our Android client.

I'd be very interested to hear how this works out!

Keep us up to date.

Works fine. EZ as Hell. I'm using the Sun VirtualBox for VM, Daemon Tools Lite for mounting the .ISO.

Free VM ftw

You mind posting exactly what to download. It says two parts but I'm not sure I'm clicking on the right stuff.

There's two parts to the .ISO - you need to download both, then use a utility (like the one they provide the link to) to combine the two parts into one complete .ISO file. Then you can either burn this .ISO to a CD and boot to it on a physical PC or you can create a VM and mount the .ISO.

It's all in the instructions. Only takes a few minutes.
