Iomega VClone: clone and use your PC anywhere
January 5, 2010
Anyone who has been working on multiple computers knows how hard it is to keep everything in sync. There are several strategies that all have their own pitfall, but Iomega takes it to the next level: VClone lets you literally take your operating system, your files, all your (logical) drives with you as a virtual computer. You will boot, work and save in a familiar environment from any computer. When you get back home, sync the changes with the main machine.
In the background, Iomega uses VMware, a PC emulator that runs your PC as a virtual machine on any device. However the company has created VClone, the synchronization software that does all the state updates. In a pinch, your VClone system can additionally be used as a backup, whether your main PC crashes. That's hot!

VMware wants to run two OSes simultaneously
December 8, 2009
VMWare has plans to develop virtualization technology which enables a couple of operating systems to run simultaneously on a one cellphone. They are currently not at the promised land just yet, but are slowly working towards that direction by optimizing the virtualization technology in order for the incoming/outgoing details from each OS to be managed efficiently and securely, while ensuring that switching from one OS to another will be a seamless and intuitive experience. VMware hopes to tryout its dual OS phones in an enterprise environment from 2011 onwards, while the mass market might expect that cellphone to enter production a year after that.

Google Chrome OS source cipher and VMWare version are available
November 20, 2009
Finally Chromium OS gets its source cipher opened and right today you can run the first rough version of the Google Chrome OS using VMWare. That's all great apart from poor compatibility and other childhood diseases which I'm certain Google will cure in about a year. They do actually point that out on their official blog. Reminds me a lot of that instance last year when first rumors followed by first beta versions of Windows 7 started to come out. Anyway, the big news about Chrome OS is that everyone can lay their hands on it, plus a splash of facts and first experiment results.
