Thank you Samer for this information. More than perfect. I used some of these applications listed here and with no doubt they are more powerful and FREE.

I would like to add something else to this list; QEMU. This is a generic and open source machine emulator and virtualizer. Many Linux users will like it as they can now run Windows Guest OS freely (Sure the windows will require the license).

Thank you again Samer for this blog I like it much.
