Linux-users Digest, Vol 44, Issue 34

[Sean Keating]

I am a big VMware fan, but I agree with you regarding VirtualBox.  The
nature of my business requires me to have Vista available.  I was never
able to get it to work in VMware, but it works like a charm in VBox.
VBox is not as easy to set up as VMw, but no one in this group strikes
me as someone intimidated by an application that requires a little
thought to use.
