Re: i7 Laptops for CCIE GNS lab

Running ubuntu allowed to run 35 3800's using just command line
environment. I found scripting and overall performance better. IOS
images were uncompressed and no GUI loaded in ubuntu.

This was on MacBook unibody SL 10.6 pro 17" 2.8 Ghz with 8GB RAM. In
parralles I assigned 4GB of RAM. OSX CPU load was 70% on average, was
running win7 in vm as well for work.

Regards,

E ent from my C.PhonD
