In this case, I can offer something radical: If the application still supports Windows 2K, ebay for a used copy of Windows 2K and install it under VirtualBox (no use in wasting an expensive VMWare license for that) and limit the use of this VM to the trading application and nothing else. In my experience, if you limit the Windows 2K usage to a single application and surround it with a good firewall (saving the need to install A/V and F/W software on the VM), you'll get host-like performance - even on a low end netbook. - Gilboa -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
