we're gonna be trying this out in today's video and just see if we can actually do this and

How it's actually going to work now the kind of funny thing. You guys can probably tell

I'm on my Windows 10 host computer and we have a Windows XP virtual machine set up here

Another virtual machine, which is gonna be Windows 10 inside of this virtual machine. So it's a little bit of vm exception as well

that wasn't really as

So that would be 2 gigabytes to the Windows 10 virtual machine. So we're gonna be trying that out

I wonder if it's even going to allow us to put

That's like it will not go further than that. That's actually very interesting

Let's see if VirtualBox will even allow us to max this out
