This is my first entry. I am going to use this blog to discuss new technologies or gadgets. We'll see how it goes.

I have recently downloaded and installed VirtualBox which is a free virtualization program for Mac OS X. It allows you to run another operating system in a Window within Mac's Leopard operating system. The program is easy to install and use and allows you to use all the system peripherals in your virtual OS.

I downloaded and installed the Beta of Windows 7 in this virtual box. I am very excited about the upcoming version of Windows. I think Microsoft has "fixed" Vista with this version. It doesn't need any new drivers, runs with less resources than Vista and hasn't caused me any problems.

I forgot to link to VirtualBox. Here is the link: http://www.virtualbox.org/
Microsoft is no longer offering the beta version of Windows 7 for download.
