Hi All,
I just started playing with virtual machine software on my home computers, looks like both VMware Player and Virtualbox are both free for home users, I was wondering which one is better? What kind of performance hit can I expect on the guest OS? is VMware faster than Virtualbox? I've used virtualbox so far and the performance hit seems substantial, but virtualbox seems easy to use, have not tried VMware Player yet... Any other thoughts on virtualization?
Thanks all.
