VMWare releases Vista compatible beta

Vista has been able to run within VMWare for quite some time now. We have been waiting for a version that will allow us to do it the other way around - run VMWare within Vista.


Vista VMWare


Our wish has been granted, and VMWare Beta 6 was released today. Here is a list of the new features:

* Support for Windows Vista - Use Windows Vista as host operating system

* Multiple monitor display - You can configure a VM to span multiple monitors, or multiple VMs to each display on separate monitors.

* Integrated Virtual Debugger - Workstation integrates with Visual Studio and Eclipse so you can deploy, run, and debug programs in a VM directly from your preferred IDE

* Automation APIs (VIX API 2.0) - You can write scripts and programs to automate VM testing

* Headless mode - You can run VMs in the background without the Workstation UI


Update 9/24/2007...

It looks like the beta program has completed, and the latest version now supports Vista, and Windows 2008 with no problems. Here is the current download link:
