This is what I call a nice desktop environment :)
I still depend on Flash CS3 for some vector stuff so I needed to have WindowsXP with Flash CS3 running properly. After trying some virtualisation programs (qemu, vmware), some guys recommended VirtualBox, and... oh boy, it does really run fast!
Here it's a little video of me playing around with my new desktop environment, (you may need VLC):

I wonder if you can record your desktop at 1920x1200 with Windows or MacOS :P
UPDATE: At start, I was amazed how fast WindowsXP was booting up. But after installing JRE, DirectX and everything seemed to make it quite slower. Here you have another video to see WindowsXP booting up fastest than ever :D

PS: If you're wondering about what's my wallpaper... here you have the answer |
