VMware Workstation Windows Editor's Review

Ever wondered how you could run more than one operating system on your computer? How about run more than one operating system on your computer, but at the same time? Of course its more than possible, and using VMware Workstation to do so to me seems like a very good idea. VMware Workstation is a great package for Windows and Linux that allows you to visualize and run virtual systems, inside your operating system without the need to restart your computer or make any changes to your host operating system. Its fantastic for testing new software, running older (or newer) applications properly, or just for taking a look at and getting to grips with a new or unfamiliar operating system.

VMware Workstation makes it really easy to get your virtual systems up and running in no time whatsoever. Install VMware Workstation on your Windows or Linux computer as you would any other application, and you're ready to get started.  

VMware Workstation includes something called Easy Install, which is a fantastic utility which helps automate the installation process of your virtual operating system, therefore you do not actually need to know how to go about installing a fresh version of an OS. Enter some basic details about how you want your operating system set up,for example the product key (if installing Windows), user account details, virtual hardware settings, where the virtual disk is to be stored and the location of the installation files. VMware Workstation lets you install operating systems from its .iso file or the CD/DVD it came on, so the process very similar to as if you were installing it on the host machine for real. If you do choose to use Easy Install (which I really recommend), you can sit back and watch VMware Workstation do all the work for you, only stopping if it needs to ask you a question. If not, run through the installation process as you would normally.

One your virtual machine is up and running, the next thing to do would be to install VMware Tools in the virtual machine, which acts as the drivers to make the VM take advantage of any hardware such as multiple CPU's, GPU's, etc. inside your host computer. Another great thing about VMware Tools is that it helps integrate your VM into your host PC, for example you can share a network connection, files and folders, as well as a clipboard between your host and virtual computers. You'll also be able to share between other running Virtual Machines that you’ve installed using VMware Workstation.

There are a few different pieces of software available for creating and running virtual machines, however I feel that VMware Workstation outshines them all. This is primarily down to the ease VMware Workstation provides as well as the many different features that can be used by both advanced and basic level users. If you don’t want to go and pay for VMware Workstation without giving it a shot, take a look at its freeware sibling, VMware Player. Overall, I'd rate VMware Workstation 4/5.
