accessible way of creating virtual machine

[Christian]

Hi Mike,
Just read your blog, very interesting. I think I will be going for VirtualBox even though the qemu driver also looks promising. Eventuall i will try both as well!
I am tired of having to reboot into windows if there is just one thing I have to do that doesn't work in Linux.
All the best,
Christian
