    @matteorattotti I disagree. I couldn't function without virtual desktops. I use them to separate different tasks or projects.

25. Lazy twitter: why would registering a VM in Vmware ESX fail with "host not reachable"? Other VMs have registered OK, just this one fails
    Permalink On twitter.com 2009 Jan 20 Mood -5 🙁
26. BTW, I have tried with vmware-cmd, vmware-vim-cmd, the web UI, and VI client, all fail. Something in the .vmx file?

    @Shrdlu I'm in a similar situation. Young kids at home leave very little time (and energy) to concentrate at home.

49. …in reply to @mattgemmell
    @mattgemmell Not sure about that - I like to have a full kbd, not a laptop-like one. I liked the old Wireless Pro (discontinued) better.
