Hi Perry
your article is very profound and I love step by step tutorials with screenshots. I am using a similar configuration (StarWind free Target and VMWare Server) W2k8/W2k8R2 and MSSQL2k8/MSSQL2k8R2.
I have forgotten where to add the vmswitch in vmware an found your tutorial to solve the problem :-).
We are waiting for the next parts ..
