      hey all hoping you all can help me out here. I am looking for a virtual desktop application which will allow me to use it with honorbuddy. I am sure many of you have found out the hard way about honorbuddy and minimizing. I am on the lookout for virtual desktop apps that do not 'minimize' all active windows when you switch. Prefer it to simply run them in the background invisibly.

      You could try Parallels Desktop and minimize the virtual machine.

      Like Kickazz006 suggested VMware offers a free program called vmware player this doesnt give you the full nice features as vmware workshop but it works and is still very nice, my dad actually works for Company that works on computers he does most of his stuff through VMware i suggest you check it out, far better than any other virtual machine player im aware of!

      Quick heads up on Vmware player make sure you disable/enable (cant remember wich it is) hardware cursor in wow setting or your mouse movement go's all over the place..Not allways just a heads up in case it happens.Overall vmplayer is working great for me i have a spare mouse keyboard and monitor set up on mine so its like two seperate Pc's

      I have had a look at vmware player looks really good :) only thing is i'm running an ssd and only got 128gb one so i'm thinking it will take up a lot of me drive then again i could put it on me backup drive :)

      So i take it you can like run a lot of wow windows on it and then just hide it????
