A while back I went to a Micrsoft Windows 8 developer event to learn the structure of Windows 8 Metro Apps. During the install fest everyone could have assistance installing Windows 8 and Visual Studio. For professional developers who don't usually have to start building their dev machine by loading an operating system, this was a huge help. However, I was surprised to watch as the install fest tech led them through creating a physical partition for Windows 8, or if you really wanted it, he would help you configure a virtual machine. There is a 3rd very compelling option and my guess is a lot of Administrators and Developers are not aware of the benefits - in fact is has all the key benefits of both of the other methods wrapped into one. So let's talk about the benefits and give you some pointers on some how to articles.
