VirtualBox 3.0: An easy way to mix and match operating systems (Computerworld)VirtualBox 3.0: An easy way to mix and match operating systems (Computerworld)Posted Jul 9, 2009 19:25 UTC (Thu) by asdlfiui788b (guest, #58839)In reply to: VirtualBox 3.0: An easy way to mix and match operating systems (Computerworld) by rgb Parent article: VirtualBox 3.0: An easy way to mix and match operating systems (Computerworld)
VirtualBox is not Free Software, whatsoever. I was hoping Sun Microsystems would fix that bug but as of yet, they have failed to do so.
VirtualBox OSE is similar to VirtualBox, but many features have been neutered as rgb mentioned, and only this intentionally less functional VirtualBox OSE is Free Software. I won't use VirtualBox because I don't use hostage/proprietary software. I won't use OSE because I don't think I should have to be a second class citizen to preserve my Freedom.
Instead, I am profoundly satisfied with VirtManager, and its server-class yet desktop-friendly support for Xen, KVM, and qemu-backed VMs. I encourage you all to give it a shot.
