Some clarifying questions

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi Jose,

do please let me know where you read that you cannot run a VM on a laptop,
as this will come as a big shock to my laptop which has been running VM's
for a couple of years!

I use kvm (virtual-manager) as it is F/OSS unlike virtual-box. We held some
sessions on using virtual machines during 12.10 [1] These will be re-done
in 13.04 as several bugs were found and have been fixed for 13.04. I'm also
planning doing a classroom session on using LVM [2].

Regards,

Phill.
