new box

[Johnny Rosenberg]

I have not tried virtualisation at all, but spontaneously I would say
that I would run Windows under Ubuntu. The reason is that I would use
Ubuntu for most of the time, and it should be faster to run Ubuntu
directly than under Windows. So the OS you use most often should be
running and the other one could run virtually.

Well, that's my opinion anyway.

Kind regards
