My Next Computer : MAC Pro with Leopard (10.5)



With VMware's support coming up for MAC OSX its time for me to say good bye to the regular 32 bit and XP install. Sorry no more windows and all the woes. Sure we will run windows (as a VM) because my wife needs it. But maybe she too will be convinced with MAC. Hey, its stylish and women love style, don't they?

Anyways why Leopard? See for yourself!

See for yourself. This guy thinks that soon MAC will penetrate into the enterprize because it offers solid product with competitive prices! I agree totally!!!

And this would rock too, Leopard on MAC Pro or MAC Book Pro! A peek at MAC pro.

  • 2 Tb Disks (4x 500Gb)
  • Quad Core 64bit CPU
  • Faster performance
Mmm...mouth watering stuff this. Not convinced yet, take a tour yourself. I am convinced for sure.

The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

OS Virtualization comparison: Parallels' Virtuozzo vs the rest

Virtuozzo's main differentiators versus hypervisors center on overhead, virtualization flexibility, administration and cost. Virtuozzo requires significantly less overhead than hypervisor solutions, generally in the range of 1% to 5% compared with 7% to 25% for most hypervisors, leaving more of the system available to run user workloads. Customers can also virtualize a wider range of applications using Virtuozzo, including transactional databases, which often suffer from performance problems when used with hypervisors. On the administration side, customers need to manage, maintain and secure just a single OS instance, while the hypervisor model requires customers to manage many OS instances. Of course, the hypervisor vendors have worked hard to automate much of this process, but it still requires more effort to manage and maintain multiple operating systems than a single instance. Finally, OS virtualization with Virtuozzo has a lower list price than the leading hypervisor for comme...
