Sun xVM VirtualBox 1.6.0

Lien direct de la news : Sun xVM VirtualBox 1.6.0
On peut finalement dire adieu à Innotek car Sun nous offre ce soir une nouvelle version de VirtualBox dont le nom a fusionné avec son ancien virtualisateur alias xVM.
Niveau nouveautés pour une version 1.6.0, on pourra noter la disponibilité du logiciel pour Solaris et surtout MacOS X après un très long état de stase en version bêta, le support du Seamless Mode pour les distributions Linux et Solaris, l'ajout de controlleurs SATA virtuels (jusqu'à 30 disques durs virtuels montable à chaud ! ) sans oublier un support experimental du PAE (Physical Address Extension).

Pour le reste du changelog c'est par ici :
Changelog
