This is a thin software layer that sits between Intel architecture and the operating system, virtualising the hardware and managing all hardware resources. MultipleWorlds technology takes the principles of classic virtual machine technology - and combines them with advanced virtual networking and system and resource management technologies. VMware Workstation 2.0 creates a computing world that cuts no corners on the functions you need. You can share files, send email and run all your familiar software - just as you do on your real machine. It's just that this world lives in its own window.
Installation is a snap.
And if there's a crash in one of the VMware worlds, everything else will continue without a hitch. To a developer, that means fault isolation. And enjoy the fact that you need to boot the computer only once. FreeBSD - on to a long list of Linux systems. Pop in and out of applications across the different operating systems - as you need them.
