VMWare

Background & History

I really love VMWare! I've been using VMWare Server for years on my old Fedora Core 5 box that
I've spent years getting perfectly setup and tuned to just what I need it to do!
The big down-side is that I can no longer upgrade the box.. Good thing I have plenty to play with :).

My VMWare server is an ancient version 1.02, and I've been using it to run all kinds of VM's for many years.
I have even been using it to run a Slackware VM I heavily customized to run my dawgland.com website
for the last 5 years, until I finally got my hands on a box that could take over that function more permanently.

Current

Currently, I've been extremly pleased that VMWare has decided to provide the VMWare Player free of charge! And just yesterday, I recieved an email with a link to download for free their new stand-alone VMWare Converter. It allows you easly and quickly convert any hardware machine using wizards into a virtual machine able to run on any VMWare product! And it's provided free of charge to anybody. How cool is that?!?!?!?!?!!!
