Running a virtual machine for the second setup is an interesting idea, but<= br> it is problematic, as I'm using MacOS X 10.6 and AFAIK it is not permit= ted
to run it in a VM.
I'm currently working with org-mode under OS X (Aquamacs) at home and u= nder
Windows 7 at work.
(For a VM with Windows I'd need a second license and for using LINUX in= the
VM I'd have a 3rd operating system to fiddle with).

I could however create a second user account in OS X for such purpose and then try to sync the "shared" parts of the emacs/org-mode configu= ration
files.

I thought that it should be easy (give I know, how) to have 2 branches in m= y
mercurial repository, one for the "general settings" and one also= containing
my private data.

Another solution might be to have 2 different stages of emacs/org-mode
configuration files and if necessary "reset" emacs and org-mode b= y a command
and then only load the "public" configuration for demo purpose.
Kind regards

Martin
