<div dir="ltr">this is nice. googling a little bit about unity in virtual box, it looks like there is support for it. I quote "VirtualBox however has some unique features such as Seamless Windows
(which won't be unique as soon as Workstation 6.5 releases with Unity),
plus it is Open-Source.

OK,<br>
<br>
Turns out VMWare Workstation have developed the same feature that that<br>
I was so excited try in Win4Lin.<br>
<br>
In VMWare they call it "Unity"<br>

This is very good for me, both productivity wise and performance wise<br>
- Although a full XP will be running in the background I will turn off<br>
all services it has and will not be displaying it's desktop so memory<br>
and cpu resources will not be wasted on it.<br>
<br>
Now all I need to do is get it working :)<br>
<br>
<br>
I wonder if XEN or VirtualBox have this feature as well ?<br>
