Of course the cheap-jack end of the market (i.e. Richmond) does this:
Pentium III with OEM Windows XP = $100 runs headless via Microsoft Remote Desktop Coonexion,
Pentium 4 with Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS & 2nd-hand VDU & keyboard = $100 6 year old G4 Mac = $52 on eBay at the moment & VDU ($10) Can look at the Mac desktop from the Ubuntu box, Interact directly between Mac and Windows. ----------------------------------------------------------- Compared this with: Cheapest Mac going: MacMini $599 (no keyboard, no mouse, no VDU) Parallels 5: $80 and / or VMWare 3: $80 XP disk: $100 (Bulgarian price) ---------------------------------------------------------- Of course an Intel Mac laptop is: Portable, Sexier, and consumes less electricity. But as I cannot afford one anyway, I'm a happy little camper with what I have: http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/richmond/EcoComp.html _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
