Sandbox time
The spillover from work to play means that I’m busily trying virtual computers this evening. In better economic times, a real beige box could be allocated to “research and development”, but this time around free rules. I’ve emulated airplanes and powerful locomotives. I’ve played in Colossal Caves. That’s entertainment in geek terms. Now it’s time to pretend that I can afford the kind of computing power we only used to dream about. Thanks to the friendly folks over at VMWare, the world is my (slimefree) oyster.
