Now available for download the version 3.2 of VirtualBox , one of the programs most popular virtual machine. Recall that since the Sun acquisition by Oracle, the software will now be calledOracle VM VirtualBox.
As we said when leaving the first beta, this new version incorporates main novelty, the possibility to virtualize Mac OS X so experimental . The chapter on the manual, show clearly that the license system does not allow Apple to install it on hardware that is not theirs, such as saying “I warned you, you know what you do.” We’ll see if the company complies with that Jobs or are released into the jugular, which we know are yours.
Among some of the limitations for virtualizing Mac OS X are the inability to use the Guest Additions (that allow us, among other things, greater integration between the systems), some problems with the video and the possibility of crashes due to energy saving options (this easily solvable according to the documentation).
What is most striking is this possible to virtualize Mac OS, but many bugs have been fixed, and have implemented improvements in things like memory management, multiple monitors, USB , etc..
