You say they "Neither really do anything else."
Are you always around to keep an eye on them?
They could be conspiring against you for enslaving them night and day.
Especially that exchange server. They seem to be the most bitter about their existence.
Just sayin' dude.
Ya can't be to smug around them these days.
They're all connected up to the net and know more than you about the microsecond-ly goings on of any given hour in a day.
I have a server in my basement.
Every time I go down there to visit it it's right where it was the last time.
That gives me little assurance however.

I use VirtualBox and I quite like it, I think that you would have to use Hypervisor to make the VM's automatically start though. I'm assuming that you do have a license for Server 2008 and Exchange?

Hi,
I'm using this kind of configuration for years.
I started actually back on XP time, with the host running XP Media Center edition, with MS Virtual Server 2005 installed, which hosted a Win Server 2003 (for web server, ftp, SVN, mail server, etc).
Currently, my configuration is host running Windows 7 Ultimate (with Media Center) and VMWare Server, running VM with Win Server 2008R2
As a suggestion on VM server, it has two VHDs - one for OS and applications, and one for data, (where I have actually stored the FTP server root, the web sites, SVN repositories and mailserver root folder)

Is a VMware server something service like. ie. Runs unnoticed in the background, starts itself automatically etc.?

Yes.
It has an administrative website where you can use to manage the VMs, start a VM console, schedule startup for VMs, allocate resources, etc.
In case of a host unexpected restart (like power failure), VMWare Server automatically restart VMs that were running before.

Nothing to do with your query. Virtual Box does not play at all when HyperV or VMWare are running. In fact, you will get BSOD. VMWare and HyperV don't play together either. VMWare and Virtual PC play together.
What peripherals do you need to share? Some VM engines want exclusive access to perihperals; others are willing to share.

Yes but that's because they're all 3 trying to do the same thing with the same hardware - i.e. opening it up for a virtual machine inside themselves. It would be just as silly to use the same port number across IP for ftp, smpt, pop, http, etc. You'd get corrupt data whenever something sends while something else is also sending, or a timeout.
Only with VM's it's much worse than a network port - stuff like shared resources (CPU cores, RAM areas, Discs, etc.) will not be handled in a consistent manner. DO NOT install 2 or more of those on the same machine, and NEVER run 2 together, pick one and make several VMs inside it.

I just read that on a book.
Just read that.
Quote: The Windows Runtime is the API developers use for building Windows Store apps, sometimes
called WinRT. Don't confuse it with Windows RT, the ARM version of Windows 8. The Windows
Runtime API ensures apps can meet the design goals around portability, performance, and
trust and with it Microsoft can also ensure ...

Great! And we should include J# in the list.

This is a brilliant parallel ! It was indeed a source of confusion in the first ten years.

 So true! Al most every JavaScript book the first introduction paragraphs starts with "Please don't confuse it with Java"

What is the confusion? Windows RunTime (as the name suggests) is a RunTime API. Windows RT just as Windows NT is an OS version provided by the Microsoft.

OK, what is Win RT?

"NT" - means New or Network?

Over years I've heard 3 version for NT
1. N-10 === N-Ten, the codename for that version
2. Northern Telecom (Today Nortel), it has something to do with some patents that Microsoft used from NT in the low level
3. New Technology

For years, the joke was that NT stood for Nearly There. Oh, and that it was pure coincidence that the team who produced VMS came up with WNT.

The stupid lab assistant in college always said NT is for Networks. As he was running NT for servers & 95 as client machines. I later found it out by myself 
I'm sure Microsoft would be better off with Animal/Bird names name to make it easy for common people to understand.
Like Mountain Lion or Tiger
Or why to copy Apple, they can go Parrot, Crow, ^^
