Hi Ben,

I am using a tablet PC currently with Windows 7. I am wondering how i could download XP tablet edition to work on my virtual PC. Is that possible? I want to take advantage of it with older applications that worked better for me on XP. Could you help? Thanks in advance

Ben,

Is it possible to connect as "Local Console" with the terminal services when integration features are enabled? (Just like when you use Remote Desktops MMC in Windows Server)

That would restore pen functionality and integration would be enabled at the same time.

Have in mind, the same problem exists with debuggers in Windows Virtual PC 7 - they only run in local console.

Well then here's hoping that Windows 8 will allow using it again or maybe the next WVPC will emulate a virtual pen input device or make available the physically connected one inside the VM.

Have you had success moving over a Windows 98SE machine? I always run into an issue where it hangs at shut down. Thanks, and great blog!
