[Dave <psych1610@xxxxxxxxx>]

I like a lot of the ideas running through here, really great ones. I do 
have one concern though about Virtual Box. I'm running Mint on an older 
2.8 GHz P4 with barely a GB of RAM. Plenty powerful to run Mint but I'm 
afraid it might not be nearly powerful enough to run two Mints which is 
what I'd be attempting to do. Even if I could run two Mints I'm not sure 
if I could perform the actions smoothly. I'd be more apt to create a 
second install if need be this way its as default as possible and go 
from there. That'd mean someone else would have to to the installing 
parts of this segment, but I have no problem with that. It would give me 
a chance to get used to it.

Also, do we want to have a voice accompanying the guide to further 
illustrate the steps?
