[...] Ahh good input thanks. What are you running the win7 host on? What do you do on the virtual win 7? I'd like to be able to do video editing at least as well as I'm now doing that kind of work on an i7 Q820 (Sager laptop) that has 8 GB ram. i7 Q820 1.73 Ghz and 8gb ram seems plenty powerful but even then there some kinds of timelines that cannot play in real time. I'm trying to kill two birds with one stone, and get both a nice powerful NAS and a video editing machine. The best pro-sumer editing tools all run on windows only at this time. Like the Adobe suites or the Sony (vegas, dvdarch) tools. So hoping to run them with plenty of poop by installing plenty of ram and going the virtual route. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
