Seriously, if you you have a computer that 10 years old or younger, a respectable amount of RAM, at least try VMs. It will change the whole way you think about servers, services, etc. It is life altering. I was skeptical, at first, but I've had years to get used to it, it really is amazing. I've really changed my mindset. I can't imagine exposing an IP that *ISN'T* a VM. I can't imaging developing a non-trivial software project without a well defined VM. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
