I'm not sure where this one stands in the version
chain. Supposedly, the VPC version to get was 5.0.
It has turned up on Ebay occasionally, at a reasonable
price. From past discussions, I'd read that it was
clearly superior at virtualizing OSes and their app.s
than the Serenity offering (which I did get a license
for). The latter product reportedly won't have
another version, as the development team for it
disbanded some time ago. However, I think I may have
heard something about another such product being in
development for Serenity customers (?)
