“VMware, Inc… today announced that its initial VMware(TM) for
Linux product will be available for purchase beginning this
Saturday, May 15th on the company’s Web site.”
“VMware is offering special introductory pricing to customers
who buy during the first 60 days.”
“VMware is a thin software layer that effectively frees users
from the “one machine, one operating system” model of computing and
enables multiple operating systems and associated applications to
run concurrently on a single machine, without disk partitioning or
re-booting. Each virtual machine environment provides full fault
and security isolation, and yet can communicate and share files or
devices with other virtual machines. This innovative approach
allows individuals and organizations to achieve new levels of
flexibility, productivity and security on their desktop or laptop
PCs.”
