   BK>Has anyone here used Win 95 or Win 98 or ME in a virtual machine?   
      
   BK>I am wondering, is the virtual machine on the HD, or in ram? How   
   BK>large is it?   
   It is in Bothy. Some VM installs could require several Gigs of HD space   
   as you must do an Install to the using the Win CD version desired.   
      
   BK>I was just thinking of adding ram to an old laptop, and got to   
   BK>thinking about linux distros that run in ram. I was wondering   
   BK>about running Win 98 in ram, and if it would run much faster.   
      
   NO and in some cases runs slower depending on the Host Machine. but you   
   need at least the Minimum Ram for Both Systems, 2 gig should work fine   
    And of course more is better.
