Want to take a walk on the virtual side? Sun's made it even easier to dip your toe in. With the announcement of VirtualBox 2.0, you can run one OS inside another with ease.

VirtualBox 2.0 works on Windows, Mac, and even Linux, and supports everything including 64 bit processors (provided your host is also 64 bit). It's a pretty tight distribution with lots of great features built in. And it might just give you the impetus you need to try out virtual systems. And if nothing else, it means you can try other operating systems in the office pre-switching, if that's on your mind.
