I'm interested to know if anyone is using the free Sun VirtualBox and how it
compares to VMWare.

Ross.

The next question should be, should I just virtualise my development 
stuff, or everything (should I use the host computer for anything other 
than hosting my virtual machine).

Currently I've been using VMWare for testing purposes (Windows7 
compatibility, installs, client server stuff, networking issues and so on).
