Is this a good place for VM/hypervisor project discussion?

Somewhere between DC and Daylight..
If so I've got a bunch of good ramblings...errrr, discussion for the forum.

Back story: I have lots of scanners, lots of receivers and quite a few ham rigs which are computer controllable. Much of the software which supports this stuff doesn't play well with contemporary Windows, so you have to run it in virtual machines.

Easy for the operator with a few receivers and one computer. I have at least 50 plus 12 discrete PCs but want to condense this down to one to three big systems.

Should anyone want to hear the rest of the story (as Paul Harvey used to say) I'll fill this thread in and hopefully generate some interest.
 

Good info, do continue. One of my tricks was (back when I used windows) adding otvdm. It allowed the newer windows to run the older programs like minesweeper and the motorola CPS v4 for my m1225 in the kitchen directly with no VM..
