Sorry, I think there is some misunderstanding

In a virutal hardware box, the guest OS inside it does not know where
it is. It may be a litter or much slower than in a real hardware box,
but the memory footprint should never been any difference. That's why
many developers use Microsoft Virutal PC or VMWare to test there
programs. Think about it - you don't have to boot into another OS or go
to another computer that may be 50 meters far just to test a small
problem of your progarm!
So I think I I have FC3 installed in a real hardware box, the memory
footprint of the JVM will be the same.
And we can all trust Microsoft to ensure that this is how it works.
Microsoft lost a very long court case after making Windows not work
with Dr Dos. I wouldn't be surprised to find Microsoft doing something
similar. Who really knows all the code in Windows.
Well, I think your reply does not have much
relation to virtual techonology even m$ is very evil.
