Deploying on virtual machines

Hi!

I was wondering what are /prog/'s opinion on deploying on a VMWare image instead of an installer.

That's because i have a small app developed on Linux+Perl+PostgreSQL. The issue is that most customers does not have Linux installed, only Windows machines. So, i want to make the deployment on a VM and running on VMWare Player.

Memory is not such an issue because with 256MB of ram my app runs fine.

Also, there is the issue of security. I don't want anyone to just copy the Virtual Machine and take it home, so i guess it must be encrypted someway.

Thanks, /prog/!

Ah, the classical argumentum ad populum (leaving aside that you are far from having proven that the majority of proglodytes think you are always correct).  Unfortunately for your logical Highness, it is a well-known fallacy.
