The Turbo/Linux cd has vmware with it... I installed it ysterday on a
celeron 366 w/128 megs, that went well... I also tried on a 486, still
working on it to get it workign... but I did install vmware, and plan on
trying it out... I just got the 2.0 beta verson last week (just came
out..) but havnt tried it yet either... however i do plan to... :)
