<br><br>Lucian,<br><br>So I've been working with Sugar on VirtualBox for a while now and it's absolutely fantastic! Have you found any tips or tricks that I might not have? (Edge activation etc.)<br><br>Any luck working more closely with the SOaS team or Sugar team or virtual box guys? Let's get this thing rolling as THE way to develop / test for OLPC!<br>
<br>Please get back to me, even if to say that you are still working with OLPC or interested. <br><br>Best of luck to everyone, I hope you're all having a great summer and thanks for contributing to OLPC :)<br><font color="#888888"><br>

Lucian,<br><br>Awesome, I've never even heard of VirtualBox before actually (obviously I've used VMware though). As a newbie in OpenSource, VirtualBox looks awesome (I just wiki-ed it). I also just setup a dual boot for Ubuntu on my laptop, so I'll certainly have to check this out!<br>
