“Using virtual Box from Oracle or any other Virtualization
Software we can run one operating system inside another Operating
System. For example, my computer runs on Debian Stable and I have
Virtual Box in it. So I log into Debian and run the virtual Box
program and install in it other operating systems, in virtual Disk
Drives created by virtual box.

“This is fine, but to have more fun somebody should configure a
linux, or opensolaris, or bsd distribution that opens directly into
a Virtual Box Graphical User Interface. Just like the ChromeOS
opens directly into the Chrome Browser, in a similar manner the
Virtual Box Distribution should have Virtual Box running on top of
the linux (or BSD or solaris) kernel.”
