DRMFree OSX VMWare Torrent I'm looking forward to having a chance to test a legitimate copy of OSX using VMWare. In all the OSX2x86 articles I've read, nobody has brought up virtualization as a reason (even a minor one) for the switch. Data centers are gradually getting addicted to leading edge virtualization technology, and Mac's weak offerings in that category could eventually lock it out of any but the most modest server deployments. I think there's a good chance of desktops getting equally addicted with the forthcoming CPU-based virtualization. It will become so much easier for mainstream PC audiences to fire up a Mac VM and test drive it than the current 'just buy a mini and get a kvm switch' alternative. 10:11:59 AM      comment []  trackback []
