what I call 'fancy programs'

[Andre Mangan]

Hello Tony,

Nothing replaces Ubuntu.

VM stands for virtual machine.  You can install it in Ubuntu and then
install a copy of Windows on that virtual machine if you want to run
programmes written for Windows.  Another virtual machine programme is
VirtualBox, there are others I believe.  You will still have to pay your
dues to Microsoft and also to activate that copy.  It just saves dual
booting.  You can also run other copies of Ubuntu or any other Linux distro.

Beryl is eye candy.

Cheers,
Andre
