Re: [Xen-users] Windows XP on XenServer local machine itself
Admittedly, I'm scoping out xen to see what it does and what I'd need to
run it. I've played around a little bit with the live cd, that's it.
So I want to make sure that I'm not confused before I get going. I very
much do want to be able to run Windows and Linux and Solaris on the same
laptop all at the same time. Xen can do this, right?
