The New VirtualBox

Tuesday, September 16, 2008



The latest major release of VirtualBox brings us improved performance for systems that run on AMD processors. It also supports 64-bit guest operating systems provided that your host operating system is also 64-bit. The user interface now looks better with Qt4 than the previous version. Support for Fedora 9 Linux distributions and Ubuntu 8.10 are among its important additions. There is also an experimental support for attaching a real serial port to the guest for Mac OS X hosts. Python support is also added for Mac OS X hosts. See the complete list of fixes and new additions here.

I've been using Virtual PC and VMWare, famous virtual machine software (see how geek I am!). Sometimes I run into issues like the driver support, but often times these work fine (as long as you have a system with loads of RAM and video).

But, it's my first time to hear about this one. =)

I'm not really sure, but to me, first time ko ang VirtualBox. VMWare has a lot of flavors though, pati server may virtualization na rin.
