VirtualBox is AWESOME but the networking piece is rough if you want to
do bridged networking.  I've found good howto's ( listed below ) but
still have to set the network up manually every time I boot the
computer. Luckily I rarely reboot so I go weeks ( if not months )
without having to mess with it. The NAT networking solution works like
a charm.
