Then, in my experience, the virtualized Windows runs slower than the "real" one. As my laptop came with it installed, with a proper license, why change it? Making it work, with the same license, virtualized, can be a problem.
I think you are right, there is a performance penalty. But its less than the penalty of what I could afford as a second laptop. My experience is mostly VMware, and if you have enough memory, and enough cores, I've found the performance penalty to be manageable. On my Quad Core I give each VM at least two cores. Performance is more than acceptable. On my dual core laptop its still acceptable, but noticeably slower, and I can't really run more than one VM at a time. - -- _____________________________________ - ---This space for rent--- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlSUu/cACgkQv7M3G5+2DLIG2ACcD0Uwg5qKuo+yU9mTTtVE7TZU 6s0AnikrR9Ro6DvfjTg/gS1fDG72VLVu =mLi0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
