對于VMWare、Virtual PC這些虛擬機軟件,可能大家都比較熟悉。VirtualBox是德國一家軟件公司InnoTek所開發的虛擬系統軟件,它不僅具有豐富的特色,而且性能也很優異。更是開源的,成為了一個發布在GPL許可之下的自由軟件。
VirtualBox 可以在 Linux 和 Windows 主機中運行,并支持在其中安裝 Windows (NT 4.0、2000、XP、Server 2003、Vista)、DOS/Windows 3.x、Linux (2.4 和 2.6)、OpenBSD 等系列的客戶操作系統。假如你曾經有用過虛擬機軟件的經歷的話,相信使用 VirtualBox 不在話下。即便你是一個新手,也沒有關系。VirtualBox 提供了詳細的文檔,可以助你在短期內入門。
