SB – Virtual Machines

Virtualization. Want to be able to try Linux without committing to giving up Windows? Want to run Windows on your Mac? Like being able to go back to Windows 7 or XP whenever you want but still have Windows 10 most of the time? What to test out the next version of Windows? Want to be able to try things that might be dangerous without fear of messing up your computer? Then you’re a candidate for virtualization. Free virtualization software enables you to create a computer within your computer — a simulated world in which you run different operating systems, try new software, and experiment without worrying about affecting your computer.
