Re: (slightly off topic!) port to Linux... development machine



Hoverfrog,

On Macs, I've been doing Windows and Linux development on VMWare for a few months and things seem to be working out pretty well.

As for machines without any OS installed, Dell sells some that way.
So I guess these would be links to hen's teeth:   :)

Subject: (slightly off topic!) port to Linux... development machine

so we wrote the application in java so we could run on Win32 and OS
X... now they want to extend to Linux too.
Trying to buy a development machine for Linux (and without Windoze
installed) is proving quite hard (I'm in France)!
Would a Mac run Linux? Any Linux? Would it have to be an intel one?
Suse is the preferred option for Linux flavour, as apparently that's
what the majority of potential users have been given.
With both ADC and MSDN subscriptions I would ideally prefer to get a
machine without any OS pre-installed, but that's like looking for
hen's teeth :(
