    Question UEFI vs. Legacy Boot Questions

    I am building a new PC with a mobo that has UEFI support. This is my first encounter with this, so I have a few questions.

    1. Are there advantages to UEFI as opposed to Legacy booting?
    2. If I run a 32 bit XP VM in Virtualbox within Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit, must I use Legacy boot?
    3. Is it difficult to convert to UEFI from Legacy if I have started with Legacy and my situation changes?

    Thanks for your help.
