Secure virtualized operating system launched

,----[ Quote ]
| The Qubes operating system is currently in 
| the alpha stage, according to Rutkowska, who 
| blogged about the release on her website. The 
| system is based on the Xen hypervisor, X, and 
| Linux, and can run most Linux applications, 
| according to the project website. It uses a 
| concept that she calls security by isolation, 
| allowing users to separate security domains 
| into lightweight virtual machines, which she 
| calls AppVMs. Files and clipboard items can 
| be shared between the virtual machines (VMs).
