That has never stopped anybody before.

Thanks for the link. I'm using an old copy of Virtual PC to run virtual
systems. Always looking for something better.

The thing I found fascinating about this page were the replies. Almost
every person replying was using some brew of Firefox/Mozilla as their
browser. A few Operas, and only two or three IE users. I guess this tends
to fit in with the theory that tinkerers are the ones drawn to using
Firefox. Certainly anybody running VMs could be described as a tinkerer.

Well, linux is definitely not quite ready for average desktop users, esp
those with latest hardware.

I feel like putting this on an external hard drive and carrying it with
me. I already have a collection of VM's (from MS-DOS to Windows XP and
various Linux distros, from Slackware to Red Hat).

Agreed. I tried to use Linux on my desktop, but I found that I kept
needing Windows for most stuff.
