Maybe its just me, but I'm a huge fan of VirtualBox. I use it to run
Ubuntu and Windows XP at the moment and it runs awesome on my macbook
pro (4GB Ram, 2.66 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo).
I have tried using parallels and vmware fusion in the past, and they
are fairly awesome in terms of blending in with the environment.
However, VirtualBox is awesome engineering, it gets faster all the
time and it has beyond awesome network configuration options. The new
beta also has branched snapshots and support for changing the
simulated hardware while the vm is running (insane stuff).
So for people with similar needs, running a rather complex ubuntu
stack locally and testing stuff in IE sometimes, I can highly
recommend virtual box.
