Lab Question

Question for those of you running your EA labs on a single machine: Would you recommend doing all your VM's through VM workstation, or would dual booting server 2008 r2 be a better solution?
With the dual boot, you could use hyper-v (which is covered on the exams). With vm workstation, I don't believe you can get hyper-v working on a 2008 R2 vm, but I may be wrong on that.
Just looking for some opinions, thoughts, etc. I'm considering setting up 2008 R2 dual boot via VHD just so I can get Hyper-V experience. I'd prefer to keep my native OS (w7 64 pro).
