Already established on Windows and Linux hosts, VirtualBox allows the use of a variety of guest x86 operating systems including Windows, Linux and OpenBSD. It includes add-on software for Windows and Linux guests to improve performance and to deliver better integration with the host system.

Germany-based developer Innotek uses an interesting dual-licensing model. The full VirtualBox package is available free of charge for personal, educational or evaluation use. Personal use is generously defined - "if you install it on your work PC at some large company, this is still personal use." Enterprise licences - and optionally support - are sold by Innotek.
