is there some reason a virtual machine wouldn't work? i've never played around with virtualisation enough to get that deep into it. eg, i never got round to finding how to get the graphics beyond 16 colour in virtual box windows 95 through xp, and virtualbox is the one i've had most sucess with since it's noobtasticly easy. but from my rudimentary noob recon into the area... seems like it's got the potential to be a handy one stop shop for anything that needs diddling in a doze environment.<br>
<br>[ramble]<br>.... my windows partition died thanks to viruses from anti-virus companies. lol. sweet! joy! happiest day of my life when i realised i was never going to boot into windows again. i thanked the universe for forcing my hand. lol.<br>

It

quite
well
for

IE6,
not

you'd

IE7

</blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>The Universe speaks in many languages, but only one voice. The language is not Narn, or Human, or Centauri, or Gaim or Minbari. It speaks in the language of hope; It speaks in the language of trust; It speaks in the language of strength, and the language of compassion. It is the language of the heart and the language of the soul. But always, it is the same voice. It is the voice of our ancestors, speaking through us, And the voice of our inheritors, waiting to be born. It is the small, still voice that says: We are one. No matter the blood; skin; world; star; We are one. No matter the pain; darkness; loss; fear; We are one. Here, gathered together in common cause. we agree to recognise this singular truth, and this singular rule: That we must be kind to one another, because each voice enriches us and ennobles us, and each voice lost diminishes us. We are the voice of the Universe, the soul of creation, the fire that will light the way to a better future. We are one.
