VMware Workstation 6.0 Build 44426 RC for Windows


VMware
Workstation is powerful desktop virtualization software for software
developers/testers and enterprise IT professionals that runs multiple
operating systems simultaneously on a single PC. Users can run Windows,
Linux, NetWare, or Solaris x86 in fully networked, portable virtual
machines - no rebooting or hard drive partitioning required. VMware
Workstation delivers excellent performance and advanced features such
as memory optimization and the ability to manage multi-tier
configurations. Essential features such as virtual networking, live
snapshots, drag and drop and shared folders, and PXE support make
VMware Workstation the most powerful and indispensable tool for
enterprise IT developers and system administrators.

With millions of customers and dozens of major product awards over the
last six years, VMware Workstation is a proven technology that improves
productivity and flexibility. An indispensable tool for software
developers and IT professionals worldwide.

VMware Workstation works by enabling multiple operating systems and
their applications to run concurrently on a single physical machine.
These operating systems and applications are isolated in secure virtual
machines that co-exist on a single piece of hardware. The VMware
virtualization layer maps the physical hardware resources to the
virtual machine's resources, so each virtual machine has its own CPU,
memory, disks, I/O devices, etc. Virtual machines are the full
equivalent of a standard x86 machine.



VMware Workstation enables users to:

- Configure and test multi-tier applications, application updates, and operating system patches on a single PC

- Easily restore or share archived test environments, reducing repetitive configuration and set-up time

- Streamline computer-based training by allowing students to always
start from a "clean" state and experiment with multiple operating
systems, applications, and tools in secure, isolated virtual machines

- Run software demos of complex or multi-tier configurations on a single laptop

- Accelerate help desk resolution of end-user problems with a library of pre-configured virtual machines


VMware Workstation 6.0 Beta includes exciting new features, such as:

- Support for Windows Vista - Use Windows Vista as host operating system

- Multiple monitor display - You can configure a VM to span multiple
monitors, or multiple VMs to each display on separate monitors

- Support for USB 2.0 devices - You can now use peripherals that

- VM Record/Replay - Use this feature to record VM activities and be guaranteed to reproduce the exact VM state 100% of the time

- Integrated Virtual Debugger - Workstation integrates with Visual
Studio and Eclipse so you can deploy, run, and debug programs in a VM
directly from your preferred IDE
