I was recommended to download VMWare, which I did. I subsequently uninstalled it because it doesn’t tell me what it is – at least not in any way that I can recognise/understand. They keep sending me nice emails hoping I’m getting on with it (VM converter, virtual server etc.) and I thought I would try to find out something.
I looked up Wikipedia and got this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtualisation. This tells me zero – just a lot of choices I do not recognise/understand except disk partitioning, which I do not understand but at least know how to use!
How can a computer be “virtual”? Either it’s there or it isn’t. Something has to work the numbers and store the stuff and so on.
Can anyone point me to a site that explains this in normal language?
Thanks
Paul
