Agreed. I spent hours setting up my virtual machine the way I want it. I don't plan to scrap it and start over. However, it is nice to see that there are free competitors. I plan to buy a new home PC this year for my wife. I'll install SUSE, of course. I plan for her to have a virtual machine. Maybe I'll use VirtualBox for it to run XP/2K apps. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
