    virtual machine for my PC
    « on: November 10, 2010, 11:07:00 PM »
    My PC is Windows 7 32 bit.
    I used VMware, but problems always bothered me.
    Then I used virtualbox, free, but not good to use. Any other suggestion?

    Just wondering, what Vmware problems did you have? The network adapter? I have used Vmware for a while now and I love it! But it's not for everyone.  You may find this link helpful: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_application_virtual_machines

    I've found VMWare refuses to allow my guest OS's to use the net via a NAT connection; I have to use the "bridged' option. Which works well.


    I have to echo the previous post... what problems always bothered you with VMWare? why was VirtualBox "Not good to use"?
    I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.
