XFce4 runs great in VMware

It took a few hours, but I finally have VMware running beautifully on XP. The speed is perfect, it’s honestly the same speed as running nothing but XFce.

I was amazed how easily TurboLinux 10 installed. Well, not really. TurboLinux is the best Linux distribution I’ve seen in terms of compatability and ease of use. Last time I tried to install Mandriva on VMware, it took several days and the screen still never looked right. With TurboLinux, I have a 960×600 windowed mode and can go to 1280×800 fullscreen.

It’s so much fun being able to ALT+TAB between Windows XP and Linux.
