cant read story for free. free account wont let you read it either

I know this post is not .NET related, in reality, but since Ruby on Rails is one of the new technologies a lot of geeks and devs are playing with, though this was the right place to post!

I dont think so. If im reading it right, which i like to think i am, it works in the back end somewhere. Explorer wont know its a .NET based File System, it just thinks its a File System. Kind of like the way iSCSI Stuff works. Even though its on a different box, its seen as a HDD.

ohh and Gavin: VPC is also free. ideally, Virtual Server (not VMWare Server, those are different) would be better. never managed to get VMWare server installed on Vista, but Virtual Server installs.

Gavin: does VMWare server support virtualization from the processor? Also, this actually works with Vista, unlike VMware server.
xpherion: you may have to sign up to get access to it. even if loged in. check the front page.
