I’ve been using VMWare’s Fusion application for the last few years and at the $79.99 dollar price tag, it is well worth the it, but as I was installing all the programs on my new Mac Mini for work I figured I would give Sun’s free VirtualBox a shot.

VirtualBox is a free program that allows you to install virtual machines on your mac. To be honest it is pretty amazing and has all the features that I needed and used in VMWare and its all for free.

It allows you to do the fullscreen and seamless modes just like Fusion and it loads everything fas. I honestly don’t notice a performance hit with the Mac Mini, which to me is a big praise.

But, just so you all know, VMWare did just recently released a new version and I haven’t really looked at the additional feature it adds, but I really doubt that I will give it a look, cause as for work related items I am all about going with VirtualBox.
