Up

Today I will tell you how to set up a new Ubuntu 10.04 server which runs VMware server 2.0.2-x and the VMware Remote Console Plug-in. With VMware Server you can create and run guest operating systems ("virtual machines") such as Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, etc. under a host operating system.

Comparison: Windows 7 vs. Ubuntu 10.04

A feature-by-feature comparison between Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows 7...
Another important element in this comparison is how each OS uses the resources available. I know that hardware in general is continuously becoming cheaper and more accessible, but that should not justify the lack of optimization in an operating system, or in any software application for that matter. In fact, the spiral of increasing hardware power required by software in general is merely a way to justify perpetual consumption, if you ask me.
