Go CCIE Go!! - A Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert

I can recommend giving Linux a go, Download ubuntu livecd, burn and boot from it Click on the install to disk link (or try running it as a livecd for testing) Then install GNS3, use the details in the link "http://gpl.code.de/oswiki/GplcodedeApt" And then in a terminal window run "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get install gns3" This will then install dynamips, PEMU and the GNS gui front end all in one go.

I used my iMac for Dynamips and could run the complete IE topology at between 30-40% CPU usage. ...
