Interesting twist to this topic, I will start a new thread for my questions.Head_on_a_Stick wrote:Yes, that would be a stretch but a simple openbox desktop in Debian only requires ~500MiB so you could give 1.5GiB to Win7, theoretically.Tekmon_Xonic wrote:I don't think that 2GB of RAM is enough to run Windows 7 on top of Debian

I would appreciate some feedback on experiences before committing on an engine to use. I have used a few in the past and I'll expand a tad below.
But first, my specs are a bit lean - Intel® Pentium(R) CPU N3700 @ 1.60GHz × 4 lappy w/8 GB ram running 64-bit Stable.
1. KVM - Until recently, I never gave it much thought until I looking over the wiki (thank you HoaS for that!). This looks promising.
2. VB - I have played with this in the past. Its a nice package but feels sluggish on my lappy so I attribute it to being somewhat bloated (I'm not sold on this one).
3. Xen - Again, I have used in the past (quite a long time ago actually) and feel that could be a possibility. Unsure since my expectations may be based on past experiences.
Any and all suggestions/experiences/help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and cheers
Chris
