There's also Sun's Virtual Box which is free for personal use
http://www.virtualbox.org/
I haven't played with it since I got VMWare. Nice thing about virtual
machines is the ease of pausing and resuming. So I can be doing Mac
stuff, fire up my VM and do some Windows testing and then pause/quit.
Windows just becomes another app I launch and quit as needed. I assume
Linux instances within a VM would work the same way.

hey;
so i use linux for my work now a lot and want to install a local copy
of centos5 on my computer, to learn more about it and how to get
around. I'm curious can it be installed with bootcamp or some
equalvent application? Please let me know. If i don't have to use vm
ware the better.
thanks
also am willing to take alternatives to vm ware.
thanks a lot
