Greetings,

I want to use some virtualization environment at home to evaluate and 
test differed operating systems (windows and different Linux 
distributions). I have done some googleing on Xen, VirtualBox and Kvm, 
but I would like some advice and recommendations from people with 
experience on the mailing list. My criteria is ease of use, network 
support a must and usb support a plus. I am probably not going to run 
any processing intensive applications. We are using Vmware at work so if 
I can find one that can import Vmware images easily it will be an 
advantage. I have installed Vmware player, but it is a bit limited. I 
will be using Ubuntu for the host OS.

Thank you,

Wikus
