Make a VM of a Real Machine Using Disk2vhd

Ever wanted to clone a windows machine, and run it as a VM? Well, Disk2vhd is the answer.

“Disk2vhd is a utility that creates VHD (Virtual Hard Disk – Microsoft’s Virtual Machine disk format) versions of physical disks for use in Microsoft Virtual PC or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs).”

In order simplify my home office, I made a snapshot of one of my Windows machines, and now run it on my Mac using VirtualBox. Saves physical space, and keeps me from having to use that Dell I hate.
