What kind of virutalization software do you use? I have sued VMWare
Server and now I have recently tried VirtualBox. VirtualBox for those
that haven't tried it, is a very simple straight forward VM manager
and has the ability to even use appliances made for VMWare. I
downloaded the Fedora 12 (Beta) from VMWare and was up and running in
minutes. What are your thoughts?

        I've got a copy of WinXP safely fenced away on it's own reservation inside KVM (included in Fedora 11 and 12 natively). I like it better than Xen (former VM included in Fedora) because it doesn't force the (primary) Linux OS to also be a guest OS. KVM also seems a bit less processor-intensive than Xen.

These people want to call [President] Obama a certain word ... and they can't. So they call him every other word. He's a communist, he's a facist, he's a Marxist. But there's a word they want to call him. It begins with 'n' and ends with 'er' and its _not_ 'nation builder'
