Comme prévu chaque mois, l'équipe de développeurs de Virtualbox nous livre une mise à jour mineure du logiciel de virtualisation de système d'exploitation. A noter que depuis quelques jours, le logiciel a changé de nom pour refléter l'acquisition de Sun par Oracle. On pourra également remarquer que cette version 3.1.8 ne corrige que de légers bugs... en attendant la version 3.2.0 et sa grosse nouveauté, à savoir, la possibilité de virtualiser MacOS X de façon expérimentale.
