There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/17081/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;VMware&lt;/a&gt; and/or &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/13766/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;Parallels&lt;/a&gt;. </description> <author>chris@lockergnome.com (Chris Pirillo)</author> <category>Partner</category> <pubDate>Mon, 25 Feb 2008 06:30:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/02/19/parallels-or-vmware/</link> <guid>http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/02/19/parallels-or-vmware/</guid> </item><item><title>Coupons for Online Shopping</title> <description>&lt;p style=&quot;color: red&quot;&gt;This feed is fueled by Lockergnome &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lockergnome.com/buy/&quot;&gt;Online Shopping and Coupon Codes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
