Introduction to User-Mode Linux

developerWorks writes "Ever wish you had a place to let your Linux applications play -- where they wouldn't hurt anything else? Do your killer apps spend too much time killing each other? Originally conceived as a kernel developer's tool, UML lets you set up multiple virtual machines that are isolated from each other and from the hardware. Now, you can test applications all the way to failure without breaking the host system -- or even requiring a reboot. Veteran administrator Carla Schroder shows you how in this tutorial."

    I see your point, if a site(*cough* C/ZNet) do it too far it'd be very annoying. :)

    Right you are but this account is to be used not only in alphaworks, but all other areas that allows free reg access. Apparently they've unified the registration database. Yeah, it's annoying. :)
