[asterisk-users] Asterisk on VMware Workstation 6

[Michael J. Liberatore]

Your idea (and adam's to run xen) is a very good idea.  I have
considered it but I'd rather not do a complete reinstall on this xp
machine, but if I can deal with that then it would prob work well.

I am going to play with the settings, etc to try to get this working
first though.  Or like I mentioned maybe I will try virtual pc.

Mike

One option might be to run in the opposite vmware direction.  That is,
run Linux as the native OS and run Windows within a vmware instance.
That gives you the Windows compatibility for your applications, while at
the same time providing the critical hardware timing for your Asterisk
instance.
