Hi, Not sure what you mean here (I could google the terms, but for now, I won't).
We decided to using Ubuntu 8.04 because it is a distribution that the students should be familiar with. In the past, we had dual boot machines, and the experience was not so good. I would really like Microsoft to put their money where there mouth is. If they think Windows is important for software development, I would like to see them donate the Iron, not just the software. The lab in return will have to put lots of money in engineering support for the MS products. In letting windows run on our machines, as a virtual machine or in any other way, we will be spending the engineering and support resources, without seeing a matched contribution from Microsoft. Of course, I have no problem if students install VM on their accounts, as long as this does not require us to provide too much support. I am not sure this is possible without root access.
