I guess I begin to update some of the Linux machines to 64 bit gradually and see if I might possibly switch other operating systems to VMware running under Linux.
I have one Vista machine I got cheap and it is actually the best Windows machine I have had. Mind you I only use it (small handy laptop) for internet because none of my old XP applications (outside of J that is) run on it. So I do need to keep a few old XP machines for old games etc. 2010/1/2 Michael Dykman <[email protected]>: > Here in Toronto, it has been a couple of years since one could even > source a 32-bit x86, if shopping for new.
