Using Sun tech at Strathclyde Sun@Strathclyde

I had initially planned to just talk about OpenSolaris Zones today, but I decided to squeeze in some VirtualBox goodness too since they're two different approaches to the same problem. As a result, today's talk was a pretty decent introduction to virtualisation in general, so that's the subject of this week's demo clips:

Next week should be entertaining on the video front, as there is some potential for mass destruction when Michael comes visiting. Watch this space for more details...

nice intro.
A minor quibble is that VirtualBox can do Coherence like display of apps without the background desktop.
Make sure you install the Guest Additions then press <host key>+L

Cheers,
