Hmm yeah. I could try VMware, have done in the past. But, I have a machine with 64mb ram only, Tie that up with Vmware and flash 5, and things sloooooow dramatically. Before you say upgrade, think of the cost here, We're technologically disadvantaged in AU hehe. Plus, for some strange reason, even following the docs, I could never get more than 16 colours out of vmware. It's just basically easier to dual boot, and put up with it. I'm not concerned about uptimes here, I don't need to be, I don't have a machine that has to be connected to the net 24/7, I do have one that does, but it's a different machine, running Debian, I only use Debian on my box for what I said in my previous email. It's a case of use what's suitable and what's in the budget, not what's l33t and anti-Microsoft.
