    Settle, tiger. The lounge is not a place for programming questions but the lounge is most definitely a place for technical discussions. We're all developers and many of us are gadget and tech geeks whose idea of relaxing chat is technical stuff. However, you are correct that technical questions that are better asked in one of the other forums, such as the SysAdmin[^] forum, should not be asked in the lounge. But there are ways that encourage someone to consider where they post and maybe delete and move their post, and there are ways that are simply hostile and lend a dark flavour to the lounge - a colour tht's been more and more prevalent. We're people too.

      Now that you pointed it out I realize that, sorry to say, I was being judgmental and most definitely could have responded differently, or more appropriately just have moved on to another post. :-O Sorry Maximilien for my outburst. I am under a lot of pressure these days at work and I took out my frustration on you and it was uncalled for. Sorry Chris for my lashing out at Maximilien. It is not my place to impose arbitrary rules about what is appropriate to post in the lounge. That is entirely in your province. In the future I will just move on the another post.

              Sometimes it's easier just to say what people want to hear. Some people can't handle the truth.

                Hi, I'm running windows7 and VMWare workstation v.7.. When trying to load an image of Mac Snow leopard I get a strange message saying: Mac OS X is not supported with software virtualization. To run Mac OS X you need a host on which VMware Workstation supports hardware virtualization. Ignoring this problem, how would you install Snow Leopard on VMWare?? Apart from buying Mac laptop, any suggestion?? Many thanks,

                Hi, I have installed Mac system on VMWare 6, XP sp3, AMD processor environment. You need to download the image that are prepared for VMware. there are different image for Intel processor and AMD processor. There are some guides online, AS vmware doest not have Mac choice, you need to install it as "Other" system
