    I haven't, but just wanted to say that both VirtualBox and VMWare

    VBox and VMWare.

KVM has allegedly gotten better, and with the direct support of our
favorite upstream vendor it may be a workable enterprise solution. But I
still find that the built-in management tools for it were designed by
monkeys actually trying to write Hamlet.

Hi Nico,

  There is truth in what you say.  Things on this front are
getting better all the time.  Spice is getting better too.  The
rate of development in dizzying too.

Virtualbox has a *much* cleaner interface for managing a few
guest environments.

Be careful of Virtual box.  It is a toy.  It also cost me
my largest customer.  I am still really pissed at the way
Oracle treated me and this problem.  *It cost me dearly*,
as in tens of thousands of dollars of income:

My option and experience: only use Virtual Box as a toy.
No mission critical stuff.
