Seems to offer a discount on VMWare. I looked at this
product once, and it is an impressive solution to using
Windows within a Linux environment (without having to reboot
on a multi-OS machine).
...and it works extremely well. We're using it for our development
database (NT within vmWare on Suse9.2) and so far it's been rock solid.
Bit expensive tho'.
...which we can offset by self-building the host box.
Between Wine and VMWare, I have only ever used VMWare. I had to do
something in XP and was single boot into SuSE at the time. I didn't want
to install a dual boot system so I downloaded the trial version, got
what I needed to get done and was quite impressed with it.
