VMware Server

I am totally thrilled - i have managed to install VMware Server and got Windows 98 running as a virtual machine! I connected up the network so that i can see MyChores running on the host machine, therefore enabling me to test on IE without having to borrow my partner's computer all the time.

VMware Windows 98 on Debian

That is the coolest thing! It's so nice to have a computer that's capable of doing it! :) And VMware Server is completely free! BRILLIANT! :D

Thanks to these instructions and these guidelines - installing VMware Server would have been a whole lot more difficult without them.

Unfortunately, it has made me realise just how poorly MyChores performs on IE6. Now i have to decide whether or not i'm going to do anything about that!
