Swear to God this just happened today!!!! While at lunch, our network guys got a call that the network was down at one of our locations about a mile away. They stopped by on their way back from lunch, of course the network was up and running. Turns out the power had just come back up after a 2 hour outage.

No, but that would be fun. I have to reboot each time I want to switch OS's. I loaded VMplayer, and tried 2 different Ubuntu images in my XP load, but neither would run..I think they had problems with my hardware. I wanted to play with Server 2008 as well, but the only appliance that VMplayer has for it is out of trial period time.

For some of us its our job. No matter what we think of Windows, our livelihood depends upon our knowledge of whatever flavor of Windows the customer is using. And that means staying ahead of the game. My current personal system is triple booting between Ubuntu, XP, and Vista. Why would I ignore Windows 7?
