Linux Distros in VMware

Over the next few weeks I plan to install and work with some of the more popular Linux distros on VMWare Virtual Infrastructure. In my posts I will work my way through installing and configuring each distro as well as any issues I run into along the way.

I plan to review three or four of the top rated distros but if anyone has a specific request I will consider adding it to my review list.

Nintendo DS Followup

Okay, so I went out and bought myself a Nintendo DS along with a few games for it. So far I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit. It was also a pretty big hit with my wife… so much so that I ended up buying one for her too. And why not, the combined price of the DS handhelds is about the same as a single Sony PSP.

We’ve had a pretty good time playing the multiplayer options on the few games we have so far. Being able to play multiplayer from a single cartridge over the built in wifi has turned out to be one of the best features of the game system. My wife and I can pull out our handhelds and play a game whenever and wherever the mood strikes.

It’s also worth mentioning that the DS will play GBA games so you don’t need to haul two game systems around to play your favorite games.

Nintendo DS Questions

I’ve been considering purchasing a new portable gaming system.  I’ve more or less dismissed the Sony PSP.  It’s just not very interesting.  The Nintendo DS on the other hand includes the touch screen, which allows for some interesting options for games… I guess what I’m saying is there seems to be some novelty with the gaming system even if it isn’t the winner as far as high end technology goes.

So what I’m really looking for is any suggestions or comments on the Nintendo DS.  Anything positive or negative you’d like to mention?
