Message-ID: Yes it was good thanks, you? For a few VMs like that you'd be fine. In fact I do have a G7 running ESXi and I think 3 / 4 VMs and one of them is a Windows Server - so it can't be that bad! For single user playing then I think it would be more than adequate. Are you thinking of putting a hypervisor on the box then RedHat or BSD VMs? Which of the BSD certs are you looking at?
