    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    I have another question - VMware purely uses software emulation where Virtual Box can both use software and hardware. I am inclined to enable the virtualisation bit on the laptops but there is also a software setting in VB (if I understand it correctly). Have you noticed much difference in...

    are thinkpads still the best?

    don't know, I have a 1680 x 1050 resolution and it is fine. I did however set the dpi to 120 (default 96). carefull with the NIB stuff - you'll have to make sure it does not have the older (faulty) motherboards although I do believe that Lenovo will replace the MB if you have problems with...

    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    Cliff5200 Tried OpenSolaris on the T61p and have some hardware issues ( e.g. audio not working which is a pain for alerts ) Next two to try out are Ubuntu Hardy LT and OpenSuse 11.0. (the Thinkpad Z61m that I have is certified for SLED 10.3 so openSuse should run straight out of the box)...

    I have partitioned my hard disk in 16 Gb for "programs", 16 Gb for "data" and the rest for "backup". If something goes wrong in the envrionment I can with Acronis restore the "programs" partition in under 5 minutes and then copy from the "data" which is holding an encrypted container all the...

    Warnings Of Secret Plans To Create International Central Bank

    If you tell a lie often enough then you start believing in it yourself and eventually those around you will have a number who will start to believe it too as being the truth. Unfortunately there are a number of people believing these made up stories and not placing them where they belong. The...

    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    Thanks for these links. Through one of them I finished up reading an article whose writer suggested that the writing is on the wall for VMware if they continue in their present attitude ( similar to Microsofts ) and should be treated like the "walking dead". Although they are still number one...

    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    I am not a specialist in security but if you do not use the XP installation for browsing and you enable NAT then how is this possible? The only thing it will be used for is to connect to the datafeed and run tradestation 2000i. Many thanks in advance, Maria

    Philip J. Berg, Petitioner v. Barack Obama

    Don't forget that there is a reasonable chance he has all the paperwork and is waiting to produce it at the approrpiate moment. In the meantime they are watching who is all jumping on the bandwagon screaming for his head to roll. In that way he will know upfront before going into the White...

    Warning Family about the Economy

    Best thing to do is to keep your mouth shut. Unsolicited advice is never listened to and when you have it wrong and there is an upturn - even momentarily - then you are going be accused of all kinds of things, even to the extend of "costing them money with your stupid ideas". This is a...

    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    Ofcourse if one wanted to be a real geek then you can put Ubuntu on and confuse the shit out of everyone by using Mac4Lin ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/mac4lin/ ) add Virtual Box and then load up something like Windows 2000 (TradeStation 2000i does not need anything more than that )...

    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    jprad, thanks for the reply. I was not selling VMware short, have a high opinion. It was referring to Virtual Box: it looks a very nice and stable product but not having the right promotion / marketing may kill it eventually. Certainly looks like OpenSolaris is heading that direction. I...
