It's pretty good. This allows me to Virtualize Linux distros with ease of use while i use Windows.
This is a great Virtualization program. I love the fact that it is free, but I also think it performs better than VMWare Fuzion and Parallels on my Macbook.
Absolutely great for cross-testing apps on both Windows, Linux and openSolaris, ans good if you cant pay for Visual Studio just to compile Apache yourself! :P
I've been using VMware workstation a couple of years but by now I'm only using VBox to give me a second OS...
AshikCygan: Oh you can :) But it has some requirements and special options composition...
برنامج رائع لمحاكاة الحاسوب بمختلف الأنظمة.. أعتبره بديلا ممتازا لبرنامج مايكروسوفت.
Pity I cant run Mac OS as virtual OS
Using it only for booting Linux with Frozen-bubble :)
Anyone can help to joining all VMs in a network for networking features?
By far the best free virtualizing software around. If you want to experiment with other operating systems, but do not want to do a "real" install, try this one.
A great VM program.
Классная виртуалка. Удобная и быстрая.
I've been using VMware, Microsoft Virtual PC, QEMU, and even coLinux on Windows, but nothing beats VirtualBox. Fully featured, fast, stable, and free - I've been recommending it highly to everybody!
Still the best VM program. :)
I love VirtualBox just because it allows me to get back in to Linux even though my Linux Box died many months ago.
However it won't allow me to install Arch (my favourite distro) as it keeps crashing but hopefully they'll fix that soon. The tab-bar thing at the bottom of a full screen session annoys me too but I can't find a away to get rid of it.
However, it is still awesome and performs very well.
