Overview
--------
. The SDI demo uses 5 non-persistent virtual machines.
  The virtual machines are started with scripts in the C:\SDIdemo folder
  on the host computer.

. The virtual machines run Windows Server 2003 R2 (evaluation copy),
  but two virtual machines (Cairo and Rome) are configured to use
  the "Luna" Windows XP Style user interface. 

. The Windows Server 2003 evaluation copy expires on 25-Apr-2008.

. Note: The virtual machines do not contain the latest security updates.
        Do not connect the virtual machines to another network,
        before you have installed all the applicable security updates.
