[thelist] Lindows?

[Pete Freitag]

Performance has been fine for me, on a P3733 with 392mb ram running redhat
linux 7.   Using X Windows, etc. VMWare will soon be releasing VMWare
Version 3, which is supposed to be much faster.  Make sure you give your VM
lots of RAM.

Hi,
Have you been able to get reasonable performance?
I have P3 500mhz, 400+MB Ram, and although vmware is usable to see if a
webpage breaks or not, performance is very slow and not really usable for
anything serious.
I tried the performance tricks on their website, to no avail.
