[SOLVED] [newbie] - VM and HD partitions. for Web Development

[talofo]

Hi all,

I have no choice but to run Adobe Applications.
Since I'd like to have an easy way for transfering files, I believe dual boot is not an option for me.
Is there a way to rapidly swich and exachange files, from one system to another?

Wine would be great but I really need 4 or 5 adobe cs4 programs to run, and wine DOESN'T support it. (or does it?)

So, I must get stuck with a VM solution.

I'm looking for performance. Only that. Performance. I've read nice things about Xen but It seams that it doesn’t work well with ubuntu? (what a shame).

I know the more Popular is VirtualBox but It seams that this VM it's ok for some simple desktop cases, but I really need a faster perfom switching enviroment.


1º Is there anyone around that have installed CS4 on a VM that can give me some feedback please.

2º If we choose to use VM, how can we configure the partitions? One for each VM ? What else?



Thanks a lot,
MEM

Well about the first question, it depends on your system.

I have a 2.53ghz core 2 duo with 4gb ram and 250gb 7200rpm disk. Till now, it rocks! So VM? np.
