Open source VirtualBox challenges VMware Workstation
,----[ Quote ]
| I tested VirtualBox 1.5.2 on both Windows Vista Ultimate x64 and Ubuntu
| 7.10 “Gutsy Gibbon.” As with previous versions, installation was
| straightforward. The only caveat was the need to manually configure bridged
| networking support -- a process that involved creating a network bridge
| between the VirtualBox TAP adapter driver and the local NIC driver on the
| host. After this bridge was in place I could browse my local network from the
| guest OS and access resources on the host OS. As with previous versions,
| though, I did encounter the occasional IP address conflict message from both
| the host (Vista) and guest (Windows XP).

4 Reasons for VMware Not to Fear Microsoft
,----[ Quote ]
| How many things can one company do especially well? And how good is any one
| of the company's 'solutions' when the company has no consistent corporate
| raison d’etre? Microsoft runs the peril of confusing itself more than being a
| confident competitor. It lumbers now, as it always has, with its me-too
| products.

VMWare: Coming Out of the Cloud?
,----[ Quote ]
| As Red Hat and other vendors seek to encroach on VMWare’s territory using
| Xen, KVM and a variety of other open source tools, the virtualization giant
| will be pushed to seek opportunities to differentiate and innovate. While the
| Xen release is not comparable with VMWare on a feature/function basis,
| there’s little debate that the technology is maturing rapidly and becoming a
| more viable option for real production workloads. Or don’t you think EC2
| qualifies as a real production workloads?
