  • With Windows 7, capturing Windows session states has improved and I fully expect more from the virtual machine experience.  I imagine an OS that can continually mirror itself and run updates in the virtual environment testing the waters prior to pushing to the main environment.  Switching between the virtual environment and the main could potentially reduce the need to reboot if device resources could be shared and/or temporarily abandoned.  What I would hope personally is that the reboot feels more like operating a light bulb – instant on/off – better sleep states etc.
