I've mostly used the free VMware server and player, but thought the networking
support was about the same as Virtualbox. What have you found that is
significantly different? So far I mostly prefer VMware server for the ability
to run the console and disconnect/reconnect where with virtualbox you seem to
have to decide ahead of time if you want a console or not - but I'm not a big
fan of the new web console in the 2.x series.
