Geek Alert!!!

Filed under: Geek — don @ 12:46 am

Ok, this is one of the geekiest things I’ve ever done but other geeks will love it. I recently got a Mac Mini so that I could try to create some apps for the iPhone. I might be able to make a few bucks or not but I know a lot of people have quit their day job because of it. Since I don’t have a day job at the moment I’ve nothing to lose.

Anyways, this is not about that. This is about VirtualBox. Daryl told me about it a while ago and I had played with it and a similar thing called VM Ware.

I got to thinking about the possibility of installing it on my Mac and sure enough there was a version for it. Here’s a picture of my Mac’s screen with a Windows 7 VB and and an Ubuntu VB running at the same time.

My propeller is spinning at about 8,000 RPM.
