I'd like to try out BSD, but I don't want to format my Pc just to try an OS... Would BSD and it's variants work in Virtual PC 2007?
 
AFAIK, it's not official, but people have made it work.

There's also VMware Server (free): http://www.vmware.com/products/server/

I prefer 1.x vs. the new 2.x beta, especially when you want to use a VM like a "desktop".
 
get vmware, microsoft virtual pc is anti-anti-windows.

Oh my! They got their sh*t figured out pretty good... :( Stupid MS... Thanks guys, on to VMWare server again... ;p
 
Just use OpenSUSE and run Windows in Virtualbox.
