Computer Setup



Comments

I recently switched to Linux after combining my gaming machine and my server and adding a 3rd monitor, and will eventually make my mac mini become my server.
So your main OS is Linux and you run windows in a VM?
No, I run windows on the 40GB SSD, but Linux is my main OS (I'm coming from Mac, having used Linux as my server OS for 2-3 years). Its literally just the OS+Chrome+Steam for gaming. though, with the memory I have I could run it in a VM.
With Windows 8 Pro, client Hyper-V is built in. This allows you to set up a VM as a background task, so it fires up as soon as your computer starts (ie: the Windows GUI can sit at the login screen, while your headless Linux install is running and happily serving files over your LAN).
