VMWare Releases Freeware VMWare Player

[TheProdigy]

VMWare released today the VMWare Player, a freely downloadable tool that 'plays' virtual machines (it just doesn't let you create any). This can prove a very important tool for OS makers who would like to demo their OS to new users, users who don't want to burn live CDs and also keep the OS makers safe from any hardware incompatibilities in the user's machine (as the OS would run inside VMWare Player, the compatibility is always guaranteed). VMWare already posted a demo for their VMWare Player, a 200 MB 'Browser Appliance' based on Ubuntu.

Eine Runtime-Umgebung für VMs! Demos auf DVD an Kunden schicken usw., das habe ich schon lange vermisst.

Ich sag's ja immer - VMware hat's echt drauf!
