                            "better than anything I've seen" riiight by Freakazoid2007-07-09 16:00:26
                              huh, neat. There's a interesting feature or two by Freakazoid2007-07-09 16:06:30
                                Compare apples and oranges. by CynicalRyan 2007-07-09 16:25:38
Firstly, as I've said, better than anything I've seen. Logic clearly says that I cannot comment on anything I didn't see. My only experience with the VirtualBox tools was a completely shot Ubuntu VM. Didn't try after that, since I usually don't need the tools anyway.

Furthermore, you are comparing VMware Server, which is only available in one edition, to the closed-source semi-commercial package of another software. At least keep your comparisons straight.

And never mind that VMware Server comes with a web-based management interface, and allows to launch VMs in different user contexts, even at log on of a user. Something, VirtualBox cannot do.

Use the right tool for the right purpose.
