VMTN Blog

Are you a Workstation Zealot? Rob Baesman writes on the new blog. Link: And now for something completely different...

Us "old-school" folks at VMware are finally getting into the 21st century and starting a up what we hope will be a great new source of news, information and amusement for the millions of Workstation faithful out there.  From time to time, you'll see postings from various developers in the team on interesting technical topics, thoughts on industry developments, highlighted use cases, beta announcements, insights into life in the Workstation trenches, and more.

How will this blog be different from other assorted VMware blogs? Well, if you're someone who cares enough about Workstation to read a blog about it, you can probably consider yourself officially "hard-core" :-)  So we'll do our best to keep things lively with the sort of info that takes your clearly superior intelligence into account.  If we're lucky, even I'll be befuddled by some of what our development team will have to say, so stay tuned!

And to go with the new blog, a brand-new shiny public beta of Workstation 6.5, together with a newly-designed beta community.

What's New in VMware Workstation 6.5:

• Use Unity to integrate your guest apps with your host
• More Powerful VM Record and Replay
• Support for Smart Cards & Smart Card Readers
• Enhanced ACE Authoring
• Link State Propagation Networking
• Improved 3D graphics Support

Enjoy. There is also an ACE 2.5 beta portal as well -- more on that later.
