Vmware workstation vs Virtual Box
Hi guys
Virtual box seems to have come a long way since I last tried it -- back then vmware workstation was so far ahead that virtual box wasn't even regarded as a toy.
Now it seems that its more robust and almost as easy as vmware workstation to configure and use -- and best of all it's FREE.
So apart from the saving in licence fees for switching several computers to virtual box are there any downsides in moving away from vmware.
The host machines are a mix of Windows 7 and Linux Suse machines.
Vmware IMO seems to be going down the Red Hat route -- away from workstation and home users to a totally Enterprise corporate model so any workstation type developments are likely to be put to the lowest priority.
