Virtualize any operating system on your Mac.
VirtualBox is a
free alternative to programs like
Parallels Desktop and
Vmware Fusion (so popular among users). Using virtual machines can come in very handy if we need to try an operating system or launch applications that can affect our computer.
It is a virtualization software application that is compatible with the
AMD64/Inter64 and x86 architectures that will offer us the opportunity to easily install
Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris operating systems.
How is works is rather simple in comparison with other similar applications, because it is only necessary to
select the resources that the virtual machine will be able to use (RAM memory, hard drive space, CPU power, network connection,...).
It has a system called
RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), with which the machine will be able to act like a server so that we can access the system remotely from any client, as if it were a
VNC system.
If you are looking for a
free solution to
virtualize practically any operating system on the market, try
VirtualBox.
