I went back to VMWare fusion from Virtual Box on the Mac. I will be the first to admit that some of the reason was political Oracle killed 3 Sun projects that I used pretty extensively so I have some sour grapes. Just wanted to give that full disclosure but I also after working with both found VMWare to be the superior product in terms of perceived speed and stability. That being said we have kicked around the idea of maintaining a gold developer VM that we could use to get a developer up and running ASAP. There are a lot of reasons to consider doing so and the article covers many of them. We will probably make the move before the next project.
