I fired up the VM server again this evening and got Ubuntu running again. I really like it, but being restricted to the software that I use on Windows but can't run on Linux. I came across a post on LifeHacker Blog about running Windows apps in Linux using VirtualBox. I am going to see if I can't set this up and try it out.
It seems strange to run a visualization within a visualization, but I'm thinking of installing Ubuntu directly on a system, and this is a great way to test it!
