The guest operating system behaved quite well.
Since Edgy Eft is a desktop distribution, I tried to simulate an every day usage of this OS.
The virtual machine worked quite well during the tests.
I've downloaded a pre-configured copy of a Open Source Operating System, Ubuntu Edgy Eft. The good thing about VMWare is its distribution of pre-configured operating systems that can be run by this application. This kind of functionality is available only for Parallels. Unfortunately VMWare doesn't have this kind of support. The first thing that I looked for was to run the installed copy of Windows XP from this Mac via Boot Camp. Even though the key is the same for all users, I won't publish it here in order to avoid legal issues.Īfter the application is properly installed, you can start right away to use your fresh virtual machine. You can register for free on the producer's Website. Even though this is a public beta build, it won't work without a registration. The first thing that the application requires is a serial number. Basically, they do the same thing, but the difference between these applications is in some of the features that you can't find in both of them. VMWare Fusion is the direct competitor of Parallels Desktop. VMWare Fusion is a virtualization application that gives you the possibility to use multiple operating systems at the same time.
