Desktop Virtualisation Today  

,----[ Quote ]
| It’s the latest release of Sun xVM VirtualBox 2.0.2 running on my Ubuntu 
| Hardy Desktop edition, with Windows XP (that came with this laptop) as a 
| guest, and Adobe Photoshop, the only remaining Windows application I still 
| use. (if you discount the browsers I use for web development testing on 
| different platforms, with Chrome being the latest addition)

VirtualBox: A Review

,----[ Quote ]
| Overall, VirtualBox is an excellent application for virtualizing your
| favorite operating systems. I use it to virtually run all of the operating
| systems that we talk about here on LinuxHow2, such as Ubuntu, Fedora, Gentoo,
| and  PCLinuxOS. Virtual machines are a great way to test new operating
| systems, sandbox an OS, and quickly wipe out and reinstall problem operating
| systems; it's becoming common to virtual an operating system, because of the
| speed of use, and because said operating system does not directly interfere
| with the host OS, if it's infected with viruses (as is often the case with
| Windows) or you just plain don't need it anymore, it's as simple as one click
| to delete it off your system for good.

| proprietary and a GPLv2 open-source version of the program. The VirtualBox

| version.
