:-: Mac on PC - VMWare

After my machine got infected with gtalk virus, initially I thought of buying a new machine. Since this workhouse seems to be aged to me :(

Choices were to select between Windows 7 or Mac Leopard Snow. Went to oa couple of stores to choose the best. Dint find any thing that justified my decision. Either sys configuraion or the looks - somehow I came home with the passion for a new machine to leave the decision for the following day.

Lately I discovered, that I can recover my infected machine. Then the choice was to install 7 or my plain old Windows Xp multimedia edition.

Took the decision to install xp and did it successfully. Then came the idea to load up with 7 / Ubuntu or Leopard.

VMWare the best option, considering my hardisk space into account. I was able to succesfully install Ubuntu 8.0.4 and is blogging now from this :).

Next I downloaded iATKOS v7, but at installation time I figured out that my motherboard does not support Hardware virtualization - in turn my dreams to run Mac is still a distant dream.


May be I would rather buy a Mac Book :).
