Well, now that I'm on stable LTS OS, I would rather not dual boot or anything. So, I gave Virtualbox a extensive run.
Info:
My original system:
P4 3.0GHz
4GB RAM
On board GPU.
Usually what I give to VB:
Execution cap 100%
RAM 2GB
Video memory 128 (enable 2d acceleration)
To just give it a go on Xubuntu host, I tried Fedora Xfce as guest, and it ran extremely slow compared to what XP guest ran on Ubuntu 13.10 host.
Weren't windows OS suppose to be more resource consuming one? I'm bit lost here as to what other changes do I need to do, so any suggestions are appreciated :3
Any suggestions regarding what guest's might run best with this configuration/settings, if I need to tweak anything and anything else I might need to install to make VB's life easier, are welcomed as well.
I wouldn't mind trying different Virtual software if it is faster either, so please don't hold your hand back there.;)
