Virtual Server is a server virtualization product, not client OS.

VPC supports client OSes.

There is no official Microsoft support for Linux.

Yes, DOS, Win9x, Linux, etc. most x86 based OSes will work under
Virtual Server, however, they are not supported and as such not
mentioned in the VS docs.

go to http://vpc.visualwin.com to see a list of OSes that work on VPC,
most, if not all work work under VS without issue.
