Hi!
I use the latest/newest VirtualBox and VMware Workstation versions. I
like VMware Workstation a lot more because it has drag and drop between
guests and hosts, be able to pause session and exit the program and come
back later, clipboard sharing, etc. Obviously, VirtualBox is faster and
free compared to VMware Workstations.
I noticed W7 (Professional and higher editions; debating to get it with
XPM or not) comes with its XP Mode in Connectix's VirtualPC (used it
many years ago on my PowerBook G4's Mac OS X 10.2.8 [didn't like it
though, but maybe it is a lot better now?]. How is it compared to the
other two VMs? I assume this only works with XP SP3 and not other OSes
like Linux, Windows 2000 SP4, 9x, etc. Can I do the same actions like in
VMware Workstations (e.g., drag and drop between hosts, pausing session
and exiting program, snapshots)?
Thank you in advance.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
