It’s about as close to having Blackbox on a system in front of me as I’ll be getting for a while, it seems, so I’m making the best of it.

The good thing is, I now have a private workspace within another workspace that I can toy with, and run some programs within. The bad thing is, it’s somewhat slow, and even slower still, because I have it on my USB stick, and I am emulating an entire computer on top of another one.

I think it’d perform smoother if I had an external USB 2.0 drive, but I haven’t found one at a good cost yet to bother trying that theory out upon.

I can’t complain too much, though. It actually, uhm, works. :)
