Andlinux is a easy installer for colinux. http://andlinux.org/ The performance is great. Its hard to notice any performance difference. It also allows you to run all the x apps on windows if you install xming which is an X server for windows (it can be installed automatically with andlinux). The performance for the X apps are a tiny bit slower because it uses a virtual network but its still might be faster then virtualisation. You could also confuse the hell out of your linux friends by installing this theme on xp and having linux X apps on the screen heheheh This may be pure evil. :oD http://techbycolin.com/?p=131 screen shot http://techbycolin.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/03/desktop.PNG Another pretty cool feature of Andlinux is that you can right click a folder on explorer to open a console on the folder. _______________________________________________ Mid-Hudson Valley Linux Users Group http://mhvlug.org http://mhvlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mhvlug Upcoming Meetings (6pm - 8pm) MHVLS Auditorium Sep 3 - Porkchop - The Areas of My Expertise Oct 1 - Ubikeys Oct 4 - Linux Fest Nov 5 - Releasing Open Source Software Dec 3 - TBD
