I’ve got to get one of those. It’s like the coolest thing in the world. You can aim and shoot, and all directly from your PC. The challenge, afterwards, would be to make it work under Linux, either directly, or via Wine. Who cares?
And later addition: Also one of those, but they’re so expensive… I want one. Really.
During the past few days/weeks, I’ve had the pleasure (and will have in the future as well) of playing with VMware ESX (2.5.2) and GSX (3.2.1), as well as Workstation in my long forgotten past, and here I try to describe my own personal impressions of the product. First – it is a good product….

Restart to X, and it was solved. Just like that. Related posts: Nvidia now works with AIGLX! Stateless Systems (diskless, boot from net) on…
First and foremost, although I’ve purchased a new display card, I haven’t installed it in the computer yet, as my NVidia has decided to behave.
