I would like to say thanks to the whole Ubuntu community , and a special thanks to the developers of the Ubuntu Linux.
Today in the morning was the first time I had an opportunity to really feel the power of Ubuntu Linux online. I had struggled for months to have my Parallels virtual machine connect wirelessly to the internet without any success(I have no wired network), and just a few hours ago, I tried VMware, and I thought I was going to have a similar problem, and to my utmost surprise, I was online after setting the network option to NAT mode.That is not the exciting news.
The exciting news is that I was able to run Hardy Heron, and it ran perfectly okay without any problem whatsoever.I love Ubuntu linux and I would want to say a big thank you again to everyone in this community. I was like a slave to the windows OS, but now I have a choice and I love my new found OS ….Ubuntu!. With time i will completely move from virtualization to a full blown Linux OS without any trace of windows.
My system is Window vista Business 1.67 HZ, and 3GB memory.

Just have in mind that VMware is different to real hardware. Or, it could be called different hardware (virtual). So not everything may be smooth if you install ubuntu for real, like it happened to me.

Looking at my signature, you see that WMware Server works fine with Windows install: all my USB drives, printers, scanner work as they do in real hardware. Even my UPS which has a USB control connection works correctly, plus all the flash devices.
