Re: [orca-list] Using Virtualbox with Orca

["Christian" <christian08 runbox com>]

Hi all,
Yes, I am also using VirtualBox and it's working fine for me.
I have created several vms without any problems with th ehlp of the command line interface.
I really like it. I see no reason to switch to Vmware, at least not for my needs.
Best regards,
Christian
