o USB
VS/ESX/Hyper-V are not in the same market as VPC.
Vmware Workstation/Parallels Workstation/VirtualBox/Qemu are.
Vmware Server can sort of be considered in the same market since it's
free (It also supports USB).

There is nothing built into VPC2007 which allows you to access the USB
ports in the host machine from a vm. You can try the third party USB over
Ethernet programs like Fabula Tech.

Not quite any other. Virtual Server, VMWare ESX and Hyper-V have no USB
support either.

Yes, I apologize for skirting around the fact that VPC doesn't support
USB and supporting hackish solutions like everyone else on this forum
and telling it like it is. It's one of my weaknesses.
