how did you get your virtual box to go full screen? when i maximize, it only shows the little box with black edges around the VM. your XP was able to use the entire screen w/o the black edges.
I'm not sure if you can do OS 10 in virtual box, I bet someone has found out a way to do it though. I don't think it's faster for rendering than OSX native on a beast mac. I'll have to play around with sony vegas benchmarks on my machine, that could be another video. Cool Star Wars movie btw
Dude, the Macs are EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE. You can buy a Core i7 920 setup with 8 GBs of RAM for half the price, then install 64-bit Arch Linux and get x264 and run it with 8 threads, and there you have your rendering beast.
yeah pretty sure im going to go this way now - been customising a few builds - even if i go 8 core pc it still works out cheaper that's insane. But 8 core may be overkill unless I turn into lucasarts and am suddenly cg'ing every movie on earth

you could get hold of vmware player and a copy of the vm config file for os x and also use a osx retail
hope this helps

dude explain how this is better than osx or windows by it self.
Can you run osx on ubuntu aswell?
I've been looking at buying a render beast of a mac - though the price is MASSIVE. Can I get a faster rendering machine with ubuntu?
If you run windows (and/or osx) on top of ubuntu are you not slowing it down?

i7 has 4 cores, not 8. 4 cores + hyperthreading = 8 threads
