Back in 1999, I was using VMWare 1.0 to run Windows 95 on a Linux box so we

I can only speak for myself. Most of my hardware has insufficient grunt
to be able to VM satisfactorily.
I am at a loss to understand why anyone uses dual-booting, it's an

A file has to be written before it can be read. If Perl writes a file
when running under Linux it will write LF as the line terminator. When
