What is virtualbox?
VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. See “About VirtualBox” for an introduction.
Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6 and 3.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, and OpenBSD.
installed in a jiffy on my Mac. Converts various flavors (Parallels, VMWare) of virtual machines for import. I imported my Parallels Windows 8 VM with no trouble. Building that VM out for possible installation on CTL303 machines. Also built an Ubuntu (Linux) 14.04 system for another project. Goodbye Parallels?
