[PLUG] vmplayer and browser


Hello everyone I am new to list and wanted to get my first topic in.

 

Has anyone been using the free Vmware server and player?  I have been using the player on my windows xp machine to run ubuntu and the stripped down browser appliance.   I have been impressed with its functionality with the full ubuntu vm and the added security the browser vm provides is nice change of pace from worrying about having my xp machine infected by spyware etc.

 

I need to implement a virtual server project before the end of the year running windows and a linux distro on a dell and wanted to see if any one had some advice on which products that are out there are most solid.  I have been looking at the xensource project and the Vmware server.

Thanks,

 

Mark
