I am serious. and if theres a debate on witch ones better, why is it always Mac vs windows, NEVER windows vs Linux…. Why is Linux roughly 0.97% of the computer market verses roughly 89.00% people use Windows……. Explain that.
third link down

Excuse me, I saw no restart, and I did see Ubuntu running inside Windows, so, get YOUR head out of YOUR ass and re-watch the video, in fact, this post makes me think you didn’t watch it at all.
Think before you post, please.
The third link doesnt work. Where do I get an OS file?
Why is that ridiculous? Obviously you didn’t read the title of the video: “Run Linux Inside Windows”. Your ‘method’ doesn’t achieve that. Your method requires a restart. Which is precisely what this video is intended to avoid! So congrats on ignoring whats in front of you and embarrassing yourself.
if the third link is dead try easyvmx

But it’s still a fact. I just feel we shouldn’t fool the average guy that Linux is exactly equivalent to Windows. You give up a lot of plug-and-play when you go down that road…
I think you mean 100 MegaBitsPerSecond (mbps)
Linux never born as an windows alternative. It was a school project of a student (Linus Torvalds) that interested lot of people that (for free) made of Linux the OS we know today.
Do you want to know why Linux hasn’t got drivers? Because hardware manufactures doesn’t make them! If ATI or nVidia make a better driver for Linux and Crytek uses OpenGL instead of DirectX, Crysys would work on Linux! The same: if Adobe would get money for porting Photoshop on Linux Distributions, it will do it.
(sorry for poor english)
Because Wubi doesn’t make a virtual machine that runs on windows, you have to reboot to start Ubuntu.
Every OS has bugs.
I’ve actually run in to more problems in Ubuntu than I ever have in Vista.
I guess it’s because I’m a linux noob.
Why not just use Wubi?
What’s ridiculous about this is that he installs a virtual environment just to run a CD image. Burn it to a CD and restart the computer and you have the same result, a virtual windows run from CD!!!!
Linux is basically ONLY good for server applications (ssh, web, j2ee, scp, ftp, …)
Windows is FAR more useful. Linux doesn’t have Photoshop, huge lack of drivers, distributions are even incompatible with each other and more time is spent on configuring the system than actually using it.
Windows = Usage
Linux = server apps + configuration nightmare

I agree. The only thing cool are the effects, but everything else is shit.
Well, I wouldn’t say Linux sucks. I do, however, rely heavily on Windows. I wouldn’t be able to switch to Linux. But I’ve never used Linux, so I can’t say anything. People just say Linux sucks when they’ve never tried to learn it. =)
But the majority of the largely-demanded softwares are also developed for Windows. I know Linux can run some Windows-based applications (correct me if I’m wrong). But MS just made their name first.
Use VMware Server Its Just Like Sun Virtual Box !
i got the same problem
It Doesnt Work? The OS Link? Someone Help Me
Mr MagicMarkery windows is user friendly, while LInux is user friendly also for advance users like us
wtf, people who says windows is better than linux is an idiot, windows got buggs like hell! LINUX FTW!!!!
linux is fucking gay. Worst software I’ve ever used. “OH IT’S OPEN SOURCE” Who cares? Whoever would wanna make anything even somewhat similar to any linux distributions is a complete moron.
because linux isnt owned by one company. Its a free operating system. Linux is faster and alot more stable then windows. What i dont get is if its free why doesn’t schools and businesses use linux more? Its kinda because Microsoft made it so theres only web sites u can go to with IE (use fire fox
and everything is locked into them with certain software. It’s not that just because its not popular means it sucks its because microsoft became more popular some how and everyone uses them.
