VirtualBox最早是德国一家软件公司InnoTek所开发的虚拟系统软件,后来被Sun收购,改名为Sun VirtualBox,性能有很大的提高.因为他是开源的,不同于VM,而且功能强大,可以在 Linux/Mac 和 Windows 主机中运行, 并 支持在其中安装 Windows (NT 4.0、2000、XP、Server 2003、Vista)、DOS/Windows 3.x、Linux (2.4 和 2.6)、OpenBSD 等系列的客户操作系统.假如你曾经有用过虚拟机软件的经历的话，相信使用 VirtualBox 不在话下。即便你是一个新手，也没有关系。VirtualBox 提供了详细的文档，可以助你在短期内入门。VirtualBox是多国语言版本，已经包含了中文的版本，无需语言包。
VirtualBox 3.0.12 (released 2009-11-17)
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
* VMM: reduced IO-APIC overhead for 32 bits Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 guests; requires 64 bits support (VT-x only; bug #4392)
* VMM: fixed double timer interrupt delivery on old Linux kernels using IO-APIC (caused guest time to run at double speed; bug #3135)
* VMM: reinitialize VT-x and AMD-V after host suspend or hibernate; some BIOSes forget this (Windows hosts only; bug #5421)
* VMM: fix loading of saved state when RAM preallocation is enabled
* BIOS: ignore unknown shutdown codes instead of causing a guru meditation (bug #5389)
* GUI: never start a VM on a single click into the selector window (bug #2676)
* Serial: reduce the probability of lost bytes if the host end is connected to a raw file
* VMDK: fix handling of split image variants and fix a 3.0.10 regression (bug #5355)
* VRDP: fixed occasional VRDP server crash
* Network: even if the virtual network cable was disconnected, some guests were able to send / receive packets (E1000; bug #5366)
* Network: even if the virtual network cable was disconnected, the PCNet card received some spurious packets which might confuse the guest (bug #4496)
* Shared folders: fixed changing case of file names (bug #2520)
* Windows Additions: fix crash in seamless mode (contributed by Huihong Luo)
* Linux Additions: fix writing to files opened in O_APPEND mode (bug #3805)
* Solaris Additions: fix regression in guest additions driver which among other things caused lost guest property updates and periodic error messages being written to the system log
