Use Dvorak: > http://dvzine.org A while ago there was a virtualization discussion going on here and several products were listed, one of which was VirtualBox. I have both VMWare and VirtualBox working, the former with a 6GB file and VirtualBox pointing to my XP partition. VirtualBox is still very full featured but not quite a tweakble as VMWare but seems to run a little faster. They're both good products. Even though they are both "free" I don't like having to mess with a serial # for VMWare, also the setup for VirtualBox is simpler, although both require you to compile a kernel module.
