Hi,
I'm thinking of setting up a Virtual Machine but wondering if anyone has
any suggestions/opinions on how I should go. I installed the open source
version of VirtualBox then realized it didn't support USB , only the
enterprise version. I don't mind paying the $50.00 if the USB
functionality works. I'd be using Windows 7 as a guest. Also I would
want to use Bluetooth on the guest. The USB devices I would be using are
printers and some FTDI based devices ie. USB to Serial etc. Just
wondering if people think KVM would be better or VMWare  or stick with
VirtualBox. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

Jim
