Thanks a lot, there hasn't been much discussion about how to actually do it, until now.

@chaltrye Yes, this can be done on a removable hard drive. In fact, it can be done on a USB stick if you want (http://www.markwilson.co.uk/blog/2009/07/running-windows-from-a-usb-flash-drive.htm)

If the boot loader can't find the VHD, then it's still on the Boot Manager menu but you will get an error if you try to load it (just as you would with a corrupted entry for a non-VHD entry).

on multi drives?

Typically - Click on the "Formats" box directly below the video player, right-click the format you'd like, choose Save Target As. However, it looks like Keith hasn't used our method to post it in multiple formats... I'll email him.

This is interesting... so can this be done on an external hard drive? If so, any idea how the boot manager will react if the external drive isn't online at next boot? Ideally it would ignore the option (much like VPC). Worst case it would hang the boot...

Also, I'm assuming it wouldn't be a good idea to run this same VHD from a boot prompt as well as VPC? My guess is that the drivers would need to be different...

The technet email states "You can download the videos below to your Zune or other video-enabled player, phone, and of course, your laptop, to watch at your favorite beach or summer getaway location." Just how do you do that?

Hey, great video! I love the idea of an encapsulated environment... Now I can store operating systems on my external hard drive and boot them whenever I need them! I guess VHD files will also be good backup media, hopefully Microsoft will add support for compression. Can't wait until October 22...
