Vitual PCs, Perfect for Testing different OS

VirtualPC

At my work I had to make a cluster of machines to setup Voip Solution. For that we needed at least two Linux machines to install Asterisk (http://www.trixbox.org/) on it and then play around with it.

One solution to do that is installing physical machines and then installing the VoIP servers on it, but there was a simpler way and maan! Its kool.

Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (Free from Microsoft Waaaaow!)

&

Also free one - VMWARE - The future of Virtualization -www.vmware.com-

Thanks to VMware I have been able to set-up testing lab in on my 12’’ laptop! Awesome! Rite now I am running a Debian and a Fedora working perfectly with different IPs, No need to format to Linux file systems, No GRUB Boot loader or anything. Unbelievable!

At first I thought …. OK, maybe it can do this but with a substantial loss in performance and reliability. How wrong was I!

VMware have a lot of options but MS one is Simpler, both are free though.

Musharaf is on the Hot Seat! chk this out, it's Funny!




Few Nice Lines

One of a board members at my company resigned, on the bottom of his mail he quoted this "Rubaii", I really liked it.

With them the Seed of Wisdom did I sow,
And with my own hand labour'd it to grow:
And this was all the Harvest that I reap'd --
"I came like Water and like Wind I go." (Attributed to Omar Khayyam)

Allisson Stokke an unknown babe is becoming super popular! And the fact that she hates it makes "interesting" :)

A new funny/disturbing hype over the blogging world; Allisson Stokke wasn’t exactly famous a few weeks ago but suddenly this 18 year old athlete (pole vaulter) and student from California got really famous. Google came up with 905,000 results (which is a LOT for such a girl) on this unknown athlete and student. An amateur homepage started posting her pictures. She hates the attention because she just wanna be a normal girl doing normal things. (Yeah rite!)





chk out the story abt her, http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/28/AR2007052801370.html

but yet again, look at her and god bless the internet!! :)
