VirtualBox rocks my socks

Identity Crisis

VirtualBox is awesome. It is open source virtualising software which lets me run one operating system in another. Here I am running Windows XP inside Ubuntu, making use of what is called “Seamless Mode” where the application windows appear on my native desktop. This leads to the amusing situation where newbies have no idea what OS I am running. It does mean that I can run Windows apps that will not run in Wine alongside my usual applications without swapping machines or even bringing up the virtual machine window.

I’m gonna try out Os X in this, see if I can effectivly triple boot.
