that makes sense. perhaps im just a naieve beginer at programing... (i am)
but dont all programs get told this by the OS? I thought protected memory was supposed to segment stuff from each other, to keep them all from knowing who all is out there. And what i have read from the documentation of VMware, it doesnt emulate the CPU (which would be slow) but lets it talk to the CPU (er??? doesn't it???)
hehehe... im having flashbacks to the matrix... maybe life was designed by VMware. With liuck my brain is running under linux, not nt.. =)
on a side note, what happens if you let VMware boot your linux drive under linux? or what happens if you have linux automaticaly boot NT under VMware and then have NT boot linu, and so on.. recursive OS! =)
