tha VMWare to install.


I'm not familiar with that package. VMware is very very easy to install, though so I'm not sure where you're getting it's hard to install. It's simply an RPM file to install. It runs through a configuration utility, where you answer a few questions (usually the defaults are good), and then you start the console with one command.

Compared to other packages, VMware does a much better job at communicating with your hardware. It's more true virtualization compared to other software just tricking the system. Each virtual machine is isolated from the other, so you should be careful about other packages in regards to issues like this.

Then again, this is why open source is great! There are many things to choose from, therefor you pick what works best for your needs. Best of luck. :)
