No amount of Sammy Hagar-endorsed hair metal is going to save this day. Time FAIL.

@sdreinhart1975 - that's neat. Didn't realised used GPU like that. Nice.
@sdreinhart1975 - vmware also uses GPU with DX9. No advantage to me, but worth mentioning
@sdreinhart1975 - Interesting; heard a lot of bad things about Parallels lately. Use Vmware on OSX and Vmware or VirtualBox on Ubuntu
@sdreinhart1975 - The main reason I did it is because devving under OSX is horrible. Now I'm running OSX, XP & Ubuntu I get best of all 3.
Actually "hate" is a strong word. "Very much dislike for anything other than web browsing, iPhone dev and watching flash movies" better
Also, I think I need to make time for a detailed post on why I hate OSX so much I spent a day configuring VMs to supplement its weaknesses
@_hb - No gfx acceleration under VMs (in effect) but everything else (disk access, CPU) native speed.
@ahousley - I was thinking of distributing the VM, but TBH it's not massively difficult once you think of it. Instructions/post to follow
@sdreinhart1975 - Basically a LAMP server running on OSX under VM. But the way I've done it is very useful I think. Post to follow.
This dev setup is sublime. I think I'm going to have to write a blog post about it tomorrow.
Basking in the warm pleasure of running three fully-interconnected operating systems on the same computer at the same time. That and vodka
@vmwarefusion 8.10 yes. Still my preferred OS ;-)
@vmwarefusion - It was an issue with vm tools not installing properly (wrong linux headers) works well now. Thx
Woohoo! I did it! Ubuntu running like a LAMP server in a VM accessible via host OSX AND under WinXP VM. Dream configuration. V happy :-)
Woohoo! I did it! Ubuntu runny like a LAMP server in a VM accessible via host OSX AND under WinXP VM. Dream configuration. V happy :-)
