Hyper-V

My first experience with Hyper-V didn't go very well, but in hindsight that was either down to network card drivers (possibly) or the fact I only had one network interface (probably the cause of my issues) when they recommend at least one interface is not used by Hyper-V.
But today's experience (with a server that has 2 NICs) was fantasic. Everything works. I even managed (after a bit of searching with Google to discover a VMC to Hyper-V import tool) to migrate a Windows 2003 SP2 VM created/running under Virtual Server 2005 SP1 to run under Hyper-V (it turns out that pre-SP2 is trickier to get up and running).
Quite happy :)
