Hi
Currently I have a system based on an Intel DG31PR mobo + Intel Dual core 7800 CPU. I run Linux as a host and frequently I run WinXP as a guest using VirtualBox. In general, the performance of WinXP is fine, browsing and running most programs is ok.
Nevertheless MS Excel performance was kind of poor on a very large and ugly spreadsheet that also ran kind of slow at the office on a Win7, Core 2 Duo 7500
What would a good Motherboard+CPU combo be for a home system with good virtual pc performance?
Is there anything additional I should think about?
Thanks
