I don't need 3D stuff, I'm not playing at all and I'm not a designer or constructor. I only use XP for some Winword stuff (when there is no other way in my business) or to look at web pages with IE when the pages are not working with Konqueror or Firefox. Qemu together with the kernel module are fast enough for that, no problems. matthias -- Matthias Apitz Manager Technical Support - OCLC PICA GmbH Gruenwalder Weg 28g - 82041 Oberhaching - Germany t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e - w http://www.oclcpica.org/ http://www.UnixArea.de/ b http://gurucubano.blogspot.com/ OCLC PICA GmbH, Geschaeftsfuehrer: Christine Magin-Weeger, Norbert Weinberger Sitz der Gesellschaft: Oberhaching, HRB Muenchen: 113261
