Although the box you purchase here contains both the windows and Linux versions the serial number provided is specific to Windows. If you are planning on using it with Linux as a host you will need to purchase the Linux version which is not sold by Amazon.

* Ubuntu

* CentOS 5
The ability to create snapshots and rollbacks is very useful, as it running all of these systems as a test environment on one machine.
One of the reasons why I purchased VMWare is that it works with ... Read More
