Kevin, Run a MAC G3 (no laughs, up grading this year) with Virtual PC/win2000. Now what I did was set-up a separate physical drive in the MAC for the VPC install, so VPC doesn't have to share file space with the MAC. Anyways, long story short.. works great! I really mean it. Can do NetBIOS crap, Simplemonitor, L2TP tunneling. Its quite amazing. (And not terribly slow, but I do have a 1 gig of RAM in that MAC.
(PS this is not the only machine I have...) Been doing this for a year... if I am really brave, I will load up my Linux emulator for Windoze (cygwin) onto the VPC install.. see how that does (an emulator running on an emulator ;)) Scott -----Original Message----- From: "Kevin Proctor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2003 07:36:52 -0700 Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Macintosh > We run MACs here at EC and they had to go out and buy me a PC laptop to > be able to run SimpleMonitor and the other tools.
