Re: [svlug] VMware available for download



I got it also.  If they can get better grfx resolution (only get VGA 16
colors @640 right now) and the speed up I might be able to completely
blow away my windows partitions.   The only problem I have now is printing
from it.  Anyone good with samba?  I need a basic configuration that will
allow anyone to print to my printer or hit /home.   There are 2 windows 
machines, I'm behind a firewall and my printer is on a linux box.  Anyone 
got any thoughts?
