Partially true. I do not have a "license" for later windows--I never upgraded because my older hardware is not supported in windows later than win98. However, the device problems would be common to all windows. Linux will happly play music to /dev/dsp not caring to what this is channelled. Windows is not so tolerant. The guest addtions would give me better video. The mouse works in win98 sometimes and temporarily at that but this is the smallest addition and not really needed. Easer networking and samba setups would go for all Windows versions as well. Best would be to get off the windows entirely, of course. Besides virtual servers and test-flying distros (why not use the live CD?), many of us want to use virtual machines to run the few decent windows things needed under linux and WINE does not always proveide the answer. _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
