      New physical installs of Server 2008 R2.

      https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2015396-os-install-on-raid-6-greater-than-2tb

      I could forgive someone running Netware and Zenworks more easily than this. Does he say what industry the business is in?

      No kidding!

        Can you use USB over IP for USB security keys? Can't think of why not

        We do with zero problems. He's making excuses. The fact that he's the sole IT person for 13 sites is even more reason for him to be going virtual, his excuses literally make no sense.

        The time alone that he has wasted on SW trying to figure out why his physical install isn't working, he could have installed a hypervisor and already had this thing up and running. Especially if he's already got other virtualization infrastructure in place and a preferred hypervisor.

        He definitely either set that thread up to blow up, or really has no clue and is trying to cover his tracks. I'm amazed how often people try to cover technical incompetence with claiming to have been trolling. Like... do people really think that not knowing something is worse than being a jerk? What a weird way to want to be perceived.

                              Technically he probably can, legally he can't.

                                You can, totally legally. Just as long as it is on Mac hardware.

                                  But he doesn't even know which way to start with it.

                                  So while he can absolutely run Windows on Apple in virtualbox, he can't legally run Mac on Windows non-apple branded hardware.

                                      Right, but it is all about the hardware.

                                          I have some of those sitting around... but they were on the way out when I was just starting to do system building.
