Software Virtualization
« on: March 24, 2006, 11:51:47 AM »
Have you heard? There's a new program called Software Virtualization Solution. Essentially what you do is put a program on a "virtual layer" and then if anything goes wrong and the program gets corrupted, whether from a virus or your kids messing with your computer, all you have to do is reset the layer and it's fixed. I haven't used it much myself, but I have a few co-workers who've used it and say it's great. I figured for the geek guys (and maybe girls) on the site, they might be interested in it. But here's the best part: it's free for personal use! You can get it off of Download.com and use it on a home computer for personal use for free.

Here's some info from the company site. And here's where you get it off of Download.com. I'd really be curious what you guys think of this.

Sounds cool, I'll have to get it for my family's two better computers, but mine is so screwed it's not even funny so I won't waste my time.

Woot! no more accidentally deleted games! ;)
