I've run win2k with vmware. I was running it on a PIII-500 with 192MB RAM. > > How much grunt does it take to run sensibly? It depends what you want to do with it I guess. I was just using it to run IE, and it was perfectly adequate for my needs in that configuration. It was running IE about as fast as linux was running mozilla at the time (in fact it was a little bit faster). I could be mistaken but I was under the impression that win2k wouldn't run with win4lin. > > Thanks in advance, I hope that helped. Does anyone know how good WINE is these days? it would be really nice to be able to run IE and a couple of other misceallaneous programs against WINE rather than using a whole virtual machine. > Alan > > -- > ------------------------------------------------------ > Alan L Tyree [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://www.law.usyd.edu.au/~alant > Tel: +61 2 4782 2670 > Mobile: +61 419 638 170 > Fax: +61 2 4782 7092 > > -- > SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ > More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug > -- "I'm not vegetarian becuase I love animals; I'm vegetarian because I hate plants." - unknown. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
