I installed Veertu it and gave it a try. I'm mostly interested in hosting FreeBSD clients, so I was happy to see a FreeBSD net install disk image in its list of options, but the client kernel panics as it boots. Fusion supports FreeBSD (and any other OS I've thrown at it in recent memory) flawlessly… Guess I'll stick with it for now.

  Does it have it's own format for images, or does it support VMX / VMDK ? I'm sick at the thought of having to deal with Yet Another VM Format.

    I had a FreeBSD VMDK, but I couldn't figure out how to get Veertu to open it, so if Veertu does support it, it's not obvious how.

I had no idea osx had a hypervisor framework. It showed up in 10.10! https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/MacOSX/WhatsNewInOSX/Articles/MacOSX10_10.html https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/MacOSX/...

  It does :). There is also an ecosystem developing around it, e.g. the xhyve tool: https://github.com/mist64/xhyve https://github.com/mist64/xhyve CoreOS on xhyve: https://github.com/coreos/coreos-xhyve https://github.com/coreos/coreos-xhyve
