5 Reasons VirtualBox Rocks My Socks

,----[ Quote ]
| Lately I've been interested in learning about a variety of the Operating
| Systems that are available today. I'm a big advocate of using the right tool
| for the job so experimenting with the latest OSes is a must in order to
| figure out the strengths and weaknesses of each. While experimentation is a
| great way to learn it can be a bit of a pain to find an old machine, format
| the hard drive, and install an OS. Dual booting is an alternative option, but
| there is the inherent risk of messing up the current state of your machine.

| correct. Microsoft is a newbie in the virtualization space but wants in and
| may make significant dents in the already well-established market that is
| significantly owned by VMware.
