Awesome!!! See, now this is where windows 8 pro comes into play. This is the perfect reason why virtual disk's are going to be useful. Someone do some bench runs!

Are you guys dual booting Ubuntu with another OS or running Ubuntu exclusively? Not sure which to do.

I triple-boot on all the PCs I have, XP, Win7 and Linux. I like both Windows and Linux for different reasons, but I won't spend money on Win8, these are enough for me.
