All 3 OSs on 01 machine

Thanks for the link! It's a matter of time before I'll try it. But yes, I would love to see what are other's experiences. If it works well, then I'll have to get hold of a copy of OS X.
 
Hee..hee. very interesting. Currently I am using Bootcamp on my Mac to run Windows. Problem is I have to quit one to start the other. With this, I can open them together!
 
Sweet thang...

Running Ubuntu 9.04 successfully through Virtualbox on my MacbookPro 4,1. Windows 7 already successfully installed on my friend's Macbook through vb as well.

Next Windows XP.. it states "all service packs" so I'm going to push my luck..
 
The real test - go the other way round. Install OS X within Windows 7/Vista. Anybody tried that? As far as I know, it's more complex with other virtual setups. But with Virtualbox, it may be easier. Quick - somebody try it!

Click to expand...

you can also use parallels... but it's not free... that's why I am also using Boot camp.. haha.
 
this is great. Time to buy a copy of windows. Haha. Never had one. Never needed, except to play the ocassional games now.

Yea wonder whether you can install OS X on the windows side.
 
This serves my Windows needs 100%, mainly rooted around .NET stuff and web development.

I'm seriously in love with Windows 7 (holy shit yeah?), and although I have yet to make my purchase, I'm certain it'll perform flawlessly as the Beta did ( which I briefly documented at http://schivmeister.wordpress.com/2009/05/10/virtualization-virtualbox-windows-7-preview/ ).

However, I have yet to find something to virtualize OS X. Couple of weeks ago I was frantically on the search for a modern Apple hardware virtualization app (mainly emulating the EFI bootloader), on the other hand, and that proved to be fruitless as well.

If you have spare time, Virtualization can be fun. There are OSs like Haiku that simply put a smile on your face, if you're into that sorta thing. I mean, it boots like fast as in crazy fast. But of course anything other than running Firefox on it is beyond reality (pun intended).

Now back to hacking USB2 audio devices (these things are simply not standards-compliant!) on Virtual XP SP3 =p
