    My God, what people! You talk and discuss everything, but when do you work? when do you write the code? you don't have time to write code. You're always sitting here scribbling comments. I think that you should be marked and then sent after the Russian developers.

    virt-manager is garbage compared to what VMWare's management graphical interface is capable of doing.

    and KVM on its own is utterly useless. It's just a hypervisor.

    No,KVM can only be used as a vmm/hypervisor moniter, and peripheral devices still need virtual machine software simulation

    Why not use https://virt-manager.org ?

    If only that were true for VirtualBox upstream and not just Cyberus Technology's fork of it.

    Phoronix: VMware Workstation Shifting From Proprietary Code To Using Upstream KVM

    This isn't an off-schedule April Fools' Joke or anything like that but an exciting sign of the times: VMware Workstation will be shifting off its proprietary base and onto leveraging the upstream Linux Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) for virtualization needs moving forward...
