Test-driving VMware Fusion 2.0 Beta 1
9:00PM Gina Trapani | Mac OS X only: VMware’s brand new beta 1 of Fusion 2.0, virtualisation software for Mac OS X, promises to make you feel like you’re running Windows or Linux natively from your Mac desktop.

VMWare Beta 2.0 Adds Vista, Gutsy Gibbon Support
1:00AM Kevin Purdy | Windows/Linux: Popular, free virtualization software VMWare has released a beta of its next Server platform, which allows users to run other operating systems inside their own. The 2.0 beta adds support for running on Windows Vista Business and Ultimate editions, Ubuntu 7.04 and 7.10, and other systems, as well as a new browser-based interface and better support for USB devices.

If you managed to get 2.0 up and running, share your experiences in the comments. VMWare Server 2.0 Beta is a free download for Windows and Linux systems. VMWare Server 2.0 Beta [via eWeek] More »
