That way, if it       craps out for some reason, I can just recopy the archived image       and start afresh.              I recommend VirtualBox for the average user. You can use your distro's       open-source version, or you can go right to Oracle to get their       slightly better non-open-source version. It may not have to power of       VMware, but it is easier to use, in my opinion.              Don't know about Virtual PC. I want something that will run on a Linux       host, personally.              --       The past always looks better than it was. It's only pleasant because       it isn't here.        -- Finley Peter Dunne (Mr. Dooley)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
