VirtualBox 开源虚拟机软件
VirtualBox 是一款开源虚拟机软件。VirtualBox 是由德国 Innotek 公司开发，由Sun Microsystems公司Sun Microsystems公司出品的软件，使用Qt编写，在 Sun 被 Oracle 收购后正式更名成 Oracle VM VirtualBox。Innotek 以 GNU General Public License (GPL) 释出 VirtualBox，并提供二进制版本及 OSE 版本的代码。使用者可以在VirtualBox上安装并且执行Solaris、Windows、DOS、Linux、OS/2 Warp、BSD等系统作为客户端操作系统。
VirtualBox 5.0 是个重大版本，VirtualBox 5.0 Beta 2 现已提供下载：http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.0.0_BETA2/。
VirtualBox 5.0 Beta 2 相比 Beta 1 版本改进如下：
VMM: added support for using paravirtualization providers with raw-mode VMs
GUI: encryption passwords no more centered (see here)
GUI: canceling encryption password prompt at VM startup proposing to close VM (see here)
GUI: Enter/Return key press for the last (or single) entry of the encryption password prompt accepts the dialog (see here)
GUI: VM menu-bar contents reordering - moving some of unusual for the Help menu stuff into separate File menu (see here)
GUI: scaling support will use the old smooth mechanism for the software renderer case (see here)
GUI: optimized medium enumeration for the large differencing trees
GUI: USB controller types for the given VM are now reflected in VM details pane
