Vmware is soo cool

With the new Free ESX interface you can allocate CPU cycles/speed per instance, define how many cores you want to use for each instance, ram etc. This is a nice feature.

This feature was only available to Pro versions which companies use.

The xpvm i setup was set with 2 cores and 1024mb of ram,seemed to work fine.Does tf2 use 3d acceleration then in the vm?

@T, that is insane!

Thanks Tigger for showing this.
I downloaded VMware Workstaion and got Vista 7 beta 6801 up and running with 1Gb and 2 cores. Took me 30 minutes from scratch.
This is awesome :toast:

This is the perfect way to check a new OS even Mac. :roll:

Gonna try Ubuntu later on.

With some good hardware, like a Quad core cpu. Lots of ram and hd space and a extra monitor you can get 2 pc's for the price of one.
