I hear some people use vmware to squeeze more PPD from their quads, well how about this
http://www.andlinux.org/
linux that runs in windows, im at work on 64 bit machine atm, so i cant try it but if i get a chance ill try it at home this week.
 
Only thing I see right off hand that may be a issue is that if andLinux is not 64 bit, the Linux SMP client won't work. It is 64 bit only.
 
For single core clients, it'd be interesting to see if it runs faster in the embedded OS vs. windows client, but Killer is right....the SMP client needs 64 bit linux, which this seems to not be, so it wouldn't mean much for a quad.

 
Be cool to find out.... I'm dl-ing now....

I'm a linux retard so... I might need help, or a helmet :D
 
This is a very interesting way of running Linux. Sort of like embedding an OS within another OS instead of virtualizing it. Too bad it's only available in 32-bit, though. Let us know how the install goes.
