Not just for developers


I bought this for home use as an enthusiast. Using virtual machines you can have the best of both worlds, Windows XP for games and complex sound hardware and Linux for serious computing. It unleashes the power of an Athlon 64 with lots of memory and a big disk. Instead of trying to manage lots of partitions on a hard drive, run several virtual machines. Beats HyperOs hands down.
