I am trying out VMWare Fusion 3 and I think it is a big improvement over the VMWare Fusion 2. I can run the latest version of Ubuntu fine.

And also the support for windows 7 aero interface altho i dont really fancy it since it requires a lot of resources.

nobody discuss about Virtualbox eh? its free and quite ok for me (very light duty in win7 RC).

anyway, anybody know if virtualbox can select bootcamp as a virtual machine?

thanks

i highly doubt so since VirtualBox is free and it is a cross platform software unlike Parallels and VMWare Fuison (yeah, VMWare might be cross platform but VMWare Fusion is built specifically for Mac). So unless they provide exclusive support to Mac Bootcamp (with all the driver issues) i guess you will need to rely on Parallels or VMWare Fusion to boot your Bootcamp partition as a VM.
