Virtual XP + Active Sync

[Nikumba]

Looking at installed Ubuntu 7.10 or 8.04, need to know if I install them, then create a virtual XP box, can I use Office 2007, ActiveSycn, MSN through it?

Cheers

I don't see why not.

You'll want to have a lot of RAM for Office, at least 1 GiB allotted to the VM.

1GB? Depends on what you are doing. Obviously more RAM is ideal but I have an XP VM with just 256MB RAM and its absolutely fine with Office 2007.

Cheers guys, looks like I will be trying with Fedora since 8.04 still has the black boot screen bug in it for me.
