Bad Penguin: The idea of this project is to allow a Linux Kernel to run at the same time (cooperation) with the Windows system instead of doing virtualization or emulation.

Now that HP has thoroughly failed to capitalize on its acquisition of Palm, everyone is left wondering who will come to the rescue.

Amazon has been floated as a possible buyer for the HP webOS division, and there are several reasons this makes sense.

It’s not just about the software, or how the platform exists now.

Using virtual machines for testing software is great. I can try out anything I want, and there’s never any risk of trashing my main dev machine (which avoids hours of lost coding time!).

I’ve been using virtual machines since the 1990′s, and frankly I couldn’t develop without them. (I’ve also got a lot of experience running a private cloud of VMs for one of the UK’s fastest-growing tech companies, but that’s a topic for another day or maybe a conversation over a nice whisky at one of the upcoming conferences ;)
