I am responding to my own post and top posting, both no-nos, just to complain 
about the results of my bottom posting experiment. Notice all of the extra junk 
at the bottom and the fact that there is no indication of who said what as my 
comments  are not distinguishable from the original poster's comments.

Do you still want people to bottom post given these two problems? I am sure 
that if I did the same inline it would yield a really confusing mess as well. 
The problem is the way I access and reply which is through Yahoo Mail and not 
the Yahoo groups site. People who use Yahoo groups should switch to having 
their messages emailed to them and try it for themselves before they condemn 
the habits of others for preferring top posting to either bottom or inline 
posting.

Subject: [LINUX_Newbies] help with vb

i want to take file from windows and put it in virtiual box. drag and
drop would be nice. but it gives me a error message. also i can't get
my flash drive (hp 2gb) to go in vb i put it in the usb section and
when vb runs it gives me a error message for that to. i run window xp
servise pack 3 with vb runing hardy herron (ubuntu) luv the biult in
games in ubuntu lots beter than windows.

Aside: This is an attempt to bottom post, but not to cut out the Yahoo stuff at 
the end, just to see what happens. I know that when I try to delete it, I get 
unexpected surprises as I undoubtedly don't get all of the html code cut out.

Load Virtualbox, but don't turn on the Virtual machine. Go to the settings for 
the VM you want to run by right clicking on it or left clicking on it and then 
clicking on Settings on the toolbar. Navigate to Shared folders. Click on the 
plus symbol on the right and add a folder to share. Make sure it is in your 
home folder. Call it something like VMShared. Then run your VM and try to 
access the folder. You should be able to add and remove files from either end 
(host and client OSes) to that folder.
