-- but right now i am coming to you from ubuntu running in vwware player on top of 2K

and it is suprisingly quicker than expected, I used the tutorial here (linux.wolphination.com)

Cheers

its not too bad, i like to boot it up once in a while and have a play, running version 2.

going to do a full swap over to linux on my laptop in the second half of next year at uni because ill be doing the computer programming paper and they do most of it on linux, so i might as well have that on my own pc...

413682 2005-12-20 22:38:00 I'm on a XP machine at the moment :eek: .. It belongs to a friend i'm house sitting for, and it's weird.. Middle mouse button does dumb things, no tabs on the browser. gastly... :p

However, on my main machine, flaptop, i run Simply Mepis. It runs Ok, sort of but it's probably far too advanced and demanding a system for a P.O.S. machine with onboard vid and all the other features one expects of a budget machine, as there can be a bit of a wait for the screen to catch up. :lol:

413686 2005-12-21 06:20:00 flaptop?? is that the same as a laptop??It's one of those portable computers with the screen in a flap on the top. An old flatmate of mine thought that was her dads computer was really called when she was a little girl. I thought the story was so cute i named my portable compter "flaptop". I thought the name was self explanatory, obviously not. personthingy (1670)
