Hi All,
Some weeks ago (early Sept, 2009) there was some discussion about
Virtual Machines, and one that I looked at closely was Virtual Box.
At that time (v3.0.9), I found that it ran very well, with a few
glaring exceptions, one of them being that it did not handle USB
sticks.
Actually it did, but it was a bit clunky to make it work. You had to
stop the Virtual Machine and add the USB stick to a list of USB
devices it could recognise, then restart the VM. I'm pleased to hear
that they seem to have moved past this. I have upgraded my copy of
Virtual Box to 3.0.10, but have not yet had the need to do anything
with USB devices.
