VirtualBox

I downloaded it a few days ago, trying to run linux (ubuntu) on Vista and everything works fine, except the fact I cannot go full screen. I tried tons of things to try and make it work but I just can't do it. Maybe I should reinstall it. But there must be a reason, it does go full screen but linux is a small box in the middle. Can't really do any work with it that small
any ideas on what to do?

get VirtualPC, it's microsoft made and ubuntu works a treat in it.
it's just as fast, more stable, and i garuantee you'll be able to use fullscreen on it.

also if anyone wants to try it, what it does is allow you to run/boot linux, vista, mac, etetc on the same screen. so say you are on vista you can load windows me, xp, mac, linux at the same time and go in and out of full screen etc the site is www.virtualbox.org
