I never had a need to run more than one VMWare session for that matter. ;) > How much memory do you think VMWare would need? I have been > thinking of getting at least 256MB.

So, 128 for unix stuff, GNOME/KDE/Mozilla/etc and 128 for windows in vmware. So far, I haven't had a need for more than 256mb. :) Andrew S.

If they did MS would have realized HailStorm is a bad name for their new services.
