Yes, I use vmware-player and VirtualBox-OSE. I built my Player VM's |
| 23 |
using Workstation on a 1 month license and have used Player (from the |
| 24 |
vmware-workstation ebuild in the Pentoo library) for the last year. |
| 25 |
They work great. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
I use VirtualBox-OSE to run Microsoft Home Server. That works great also. |

I'm on my i980x Gentoo machine and am running 3 VM's at the moment all |
| 35 |
in Player. It works well. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
I actually haven't done much with VMWare-Player on the i5-661 mostly |
| 38 |
because the machine runs Windows most of the time right now. |
| 39 |
|

|
| 41 |
i think if I was going to use prebuild VMs then I'd likely go with |
| 42 |
VMWare-Player because I have more history with it. If I was going to |
| 43 |
do new installations then I'd work on VirtualBox. |
