VirtualBox 3.2.2
VirtualBox
VirtualBox - a program to run on the same computer multiple virtual operating systems. It is a handy and functional tool for virtualization, calculated kahk for corporate and home-users. The program supports many different guests on the family Windows (NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/7), as well as DOS, Linux and OpenBSD. As in other similar applications, there exists the possibility to start and stop the guest operating system, configuration of computer resources, exchange of data between primary and guest operating system, taking screenshots of the virtual system and much more.
VirtualBox is practically not inferior to similar commercial developments (except sometimes slow speed). There are tools to work with peripheral devices on the main PC, for possible inclusion in the network, remote control, there are tools for sharing files, as well as special packages with software and drivers for guest operating systems that are designed to improve performance. For valuable work with VirtualBox need when you first start to register by entering your name and email address.
Key features of the program:
"Support for USB 2.0, when the device host machines are available for guest OS
"Built-in RDP-server and client support for USB-devices over RDP protocol
"Experimental support for disk imaging VMDK / VMware
"Support for iSCSI
"Virtualization support audio
"Support for various types of networking (NAT, Host Networking via Bridged, Internal)
"Support for the tree saved state the virtual machine (snapshots), which can be rolled back from any state guest
"Support for Shared Folders to easily share files between the host and guest systems
"Cross-platform
"Modularity
And much more ...
