Oh, and I've been running vmware-server because that's what I was teaching with |
| 26 |
at school. Now the school has gone to VirtualBox because it appears |
| 27 |
not to have |
| 28 |
the update hassles of VMware. I'll probably do the same, but I have |
| 29 |
to recover a bunch |
| 30 |
of data from this VMware VM first. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Server was also nice because I could create new VMs with it, which Workstation |
| 33 |
would not do. VirtualBox will do that too, it seems. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
I think I'll try that Workstation tarball... |
