*Jun 5, 2007.* innotek today released VirtualBox 1.4.0 for Windows and
Linux. This new version brings hundreds of improvements, more than any
update since the first official release in January 2007. Among the new
features are full support for 64-bit Linux hosts, RDP session shadowing,
clipboard synchronization and easier Linux host interface networking. In
the storage department, VirtualBox now supports VMware disk images
(VMDK) natively and can give virtual machines access to physical disks
and partitions ("raw disk support"). The graphical user interface has
received more polish and has now been translated into 12 languages
(German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Arabic,
Russian, Japanese, Traditional Chinese and Chinese). Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5 (RHEL5) and Xandros Desktop 4.1 are now officially supported;
support for FreeBSD and OpenBSD guests has been improved. As with its
predecessors, VirtualBox 1.4.0 is available both as Open Source under
the GPL as well as under a commercial license which, in most cases,
allows you to use the product free of charge.
