Vista Vs Ubuntu: This Time, It's Virtual
Blog Of course, I can't just put a Windows OS on my Ubuntu machinery - don't have an unused Genuine Windows Advantage XP or Vista, and to reuse anything would be against the licence. I've been meaning to try VirtualBox, the free x86 virtualisation...

Why I've Moved From Vista To Ubuntu 7.10
Blog Comment Hey, I'm not sore about the hardware, I actually find a lot to like in WIndows XP, I'm not holding my breath for Leopard, and I did remove enough bloatware to keep a liposuctionist busy for a week. My point is that the change is such that, combined...
