[Testing] [IAEP] Follow-up. Next Question: How many boxes?

[Caryl Bigenho]

Yes, you can run lots of VM's in VB. Two of the ones I have in it work fine. My question is actually, can I run 2 Virtual Boxes on my MacBook? One would be the one I already have with a beta version of SoaS and Maple Syrup running just fine and 3 others that don't work and freeze my computer when I try to use them. The other would be a fresh, clean copy of the newest version of VB.  
Are there any special considerations in doing this?
