Mac+VMware update
Well, apparently VMware has heard the cries of OSX users…sort of. VMware for OSX is in “Friends and Family” beta right now, and hopefully will see public consumption soon. The new product is called VMware Fusion and is apparently a cross between Player and Workstation. This does NOT make me happy. [...]
