Ahh... but I just said that it was cool - not useful. I'm impressed by the simple fact that it runs.
You might say from a purely technical aspect it's cool. Utilitarian - maybe not so much. Many times, it's just the "Wow" factor, and nothing else. -rtk -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 9:07 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] [Dreadfully OT]: Interesting little tidbit....

Actually, my malady is contagious :) It's 4.7MB. I did not want to believe it would be that small when I first look at it, that was why I was confused. But, from what I am reading, I can see it's so small. By the way, this does not appear to me to be any different from running LINUX under a typical VM environment. So, what's new or so cool about that? I guess I should play first before blabbing, eh? :). Downloading the Debian image now.

Hallucination..... It's a 47MB compressed file system image... No where near as imposing as it looks.

If you haven't looked at this yet - you really NEED to. I have it installed, working and am getting ready to toss X on, and get it functioning. This is one of those things that comes along and you look at it and think, "Huh.... that's really SUPER cool."
