VirtualBox Emulation Software Now Free


Recommended Posts

I just saw this today from innotek and have downloaded the binary version and installed the product this evening:

I've installed a guest winxp in VirtualBox on LE2005 and it seems to be working pretty good. Haven't had a chance to thoroughly test it and there do seem to be a few bumps in the road but it's running winxp pretty fast; right now I'm doing updates. It is ram hungry like most virtualization software and no 3d/games AFAIK.

 

Thought I'd pass it along if others would like to try.

(actually first running MCNLive Cherbourg as .iso/cd, then installing it from the running iso, and running it from the virtual HD), pretty fast on my box:
