Virtualisation In Os X Tiger

Recommended Posts

What is a good Preferably FREE Virtualisation program that will run windows and linux on os x tiger (in a window).

 

I've got Q KJU (Mac port of Qemu with a front end)

 

And i know of two of the big commercial ones, Parallels and Vmware...

 

Any others?

VirtualBox.

Its a wild application currently as its an open source software with good support on OS. Many claims it have good performance against the commercial ones.

https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24801/virtualbox <-- get it while its hot :). I might give this a try as well.


Another one which i am not sure if the development is still in progress, CrossOver Mac. Sounds very unfamiliar but i cant comment on its usages and features.

I know about crossover, its not an emulator as such, it allows you to run windows software because it runs windows compatible files (DLL)I have used it, it was pretty good what I used it for. Simply office 2000 on the mac. Before I discovered iWork :)
