You know you want to get rid of WinXP. ;) -------------------- Posted by Mgrist Just keep clicking shit until you get a blue screen, that's what I do.

So, since I did not use it as much as darth anyway, I called her up and then brought it right over. It is actually perfect for her, because she has very small hands (actually, everything about her is small). She had a computer to use, but none that she owned, so now she is hooked up, and she likes it a lot. And, no, she would not give me any of that sweet stuff, before anyone asks. -------------------- dd-wrt

I want Ubuntu on something but I'm so tied up in producing FAH points right now that it's all windows on my machines. They are producing about 10,000 PPD each. What's the closest I can get with Ubuntu?? -------------------- Posted by Chelsea Oilman I agree 100% with everything Mike just said.

Will I destroy a computer trying to get it running? :rolleyes: -------------------- Posted by Chelsea Oilman I agree 100% with everything Mike just said.

All my machines are dual boot and have VMs set up. -------------------- Posted by Mgrist Just keep clicking shit until you get a blue screen, that's what I do.

The Grumpy One Group: Administrator Posts: 9,631 Member No.: 6 Joined: 3-November 04	So what's the verdict? What kind of points can I get from a quad running Linux. Can you run GPU's in a VM? I may just have to take the cut in points, but as I type that I think of my climb to stardom. :rolleyes: -------------------- Posted by Chelsea Oilman I agree 100% with everything Mike just said.

More than Windows.

Not a Windows VM. You can run the GPU client in Linux, no VMs needed. I'm not saying it's easy.
