Re: [orca-list] Using Ubuntu all the way now

[hackingKK <hackingkk gmail com>]

Putting a VM inside Ubuntu and running windows there is the best way.
If you are seriously going to use Ubuntu which I personally use and 
absolutely recommend, about 10 or 15 gb vertual box file is more than 
sufficient.
I think barring a few specific activies, all can be done using Ubuntu in 
an accesible way.
Happy hacking.
