Microsoft Virtual Box

[AnonTyler]

Great program, it allows you to run any OS, well almost any, in a small window while running Windows.

I have Windows 7 Ultimate, I tried out Fedora, I think it's a keeper.

I like that it allows me to change the CPU speed in Virtual-box, therefore I can transfer my CPU speed on windows to VirtualBox.

I think Fedora is pretty good, easy to learn how to use, but it's a tad less organized.

If anyone wants to try out Virtual box, Downloads - VirtualBox

Oh, and you'll need the .iso file for any Linux server you want to run.

This is more of a demo-program, so insted of installing a Linux server, you can test it first.

Virtualbox best darn VM.

No, just no.

[AnonTyler]

Yes it is.

Oh and if you have an android based phone, you can use your computer as a keyboard for it.

It's pretty cool.

I use Virtual Box to run my web server only when I need it as a proxy at school or when I need to download files away from my home.

Quote 4 troof, I use that program also.

[Corndog]

downloading virtualbox (there server is so slow) and fedora live CD now.

[afunyun]

downloading virtualbox (there server is so slow) and fedora live CD now.

I'm getting 1151.7 kB/s from them but anything from a good server like googles or something tops at around 10000 kB/s

tl;dr (how it would be I don't know) their server is slow.

[AnonTyler]

I got home and installed it, in like 12 minutes.

Whats the difference between that and VMWARE?

[AnonTyler]

I don't think VMware is made by Microsoft, is it?

And personally, MSVB has better quality.

[Corndog]

VirtualBox is made by Oracle Software, not microsoft.

[AnonTyler]

Yeah, I didn't even notice when I installed it, I just took the name.

my bad

[[MPGH]Toxin]

VMWARE > VirtualBox.

I can run 3 VMWARES, all of them on CF at once, and have over 45 FPS on each one.

Also, if you try to run Crossfire in VirtualBox you'll get a Themida Warning, about how it can't run under a Virtual Machine.

[AnonTyler]

I don't run FPS games in VM's.

So I don't have that problem,

Like I said I only use MSVB to test Linux servers without the pain of installing.
