Default VMWare Player

Does anyone use the free version of VMWare Player?

Yup, I've used it before and it's a very useful tool. Also check out Microsoft Virtual PC as that is free and may offer better vitalisation for MS operating systems.

VMware is the daddy when it comes to virtualisation. MS Virtual PC is not in the same league.

VMware all the way! plus it has free version. bargain!

How 'user friendly' is VMWare?
