I have been afraid to invest much time in VirtualBox now that Oracle has its
hands wrapped around the software. I am looking for alternatives to
VirtualBox. Shame though as I used to like it a lot. All I can think is that
everyone will be sorely disappointed when they decide whatever they decide

Virtualbox is pretty decent for that sort of thing but I don't know
what the status of that project is since Oracle bought Sun.

It does give you access to open a console. You may have to install a
browser plugin and/or java, but you can open your virtual machines console
with nothing more than a web browser. I used VMWare Server for years this
way. Our VMWare Server didn't even run a GUI.

You may want to look into VirtualBox. It has a built-in RDP server for
virtual machines (be sure to get the PUEL version).

I would suggest first and foremost to not use VNC at all.
VMWare offers some free options, and they come with a tool for connecting
that will be less resource intense.
Barring going that route for any reason, I would suggest using Microsofts

Anyone have experience with running VMWare on Linux through a remote
VNC connection? (Unfortunately I need some features of programs that
do not run under Wine and no Linux program provides the same
