Nearly the same here: I'm keeping two virtual machines on my FreeBSD laptop: a Windows 7 and a Linux one, and I'm starting the Win7 VM when I stumble across that oddball Flash-only website that would not even display on the Linux VM. This way, I'm keeping a clean and lean FreeBSD environment, unpolluted by tons of Linuxulator compat libraries needed just to make that flash plugin work. Plus, it's easier to reset the Win7 VM to a previous virus-free stage after each use... even though something like this http://www.qubes-os.org/trac would be even better, I assume. ;) -- > Jerry ♔ > > -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
