In this podcast I am talking through setting up a virtual machine using VirtualBox, and installing Windows XP on that virtual machine.
If you would like me to make further episodes on this topic, maybe installing a different OS, or how to tweak this WinXP install once it is up and running then please drop me a line either on Twitter or identi.ca; I am @arfab; or email me on: arfab@lavabit.com
