holy shit, i want that lunchbox. and an apple IIGS.

Son, we use something here that is about 2 generations ahead of VMWare, we use it on top of SELinux to run windows, soliars, another instance of linux and a custom OS, all at the same time, also they can be run at different classification levels (just so you understand how subdivided the VMs are). It just isn't possible to directly access the hardware in a VM like you can natively. Everything in a VM has to pass through several levels before it can get at the hardware, and those levels MUST understand the command to interpert it correctly, do you see a new version of VMware coming out when a new copy of DirecX does or NVidia driver does? No, so it will NEVER even get close to the level of performance modern games need. VM's have their place, 3D games is not one of them.

i'm trying to imagine chad with his southern draw say this. it sounds pretty hilarious in my head. "boy, i'll tell you what, we dont 'preciate your VMWare kind 'round these parts."
