VMWare Workstation 6.0 beta is available

VMWare started a beta program for its Workstation 6.0 product. I have to say that I find Workstation as a must have product - one that you can't live without, at least I can't. IMO it is the best workstation virtualization product out there (running on Windows), leaving Microsoft VirtualPC far behind. Years away. Anyway, here is 6.0 beta which brings very useful features. My favorite being:

"Integrated Virtual Debugger - Workstation integrates with Visual Studio and Eclipse so you can deploy, run, and debug programs in a VM directly from your preferred IDE"

Isn't that just lovely?

There are other cool features coming, too: official support for Vista, multiple monitor display, automation APIs (I wonder whether this will be integrated into PowerShell) and headless mode. Plus there is broader support for devices, I think (USB 2.0, etc).

I see that VMWare Workstation is going to be even more indispensable. Right now I am downloading beta and hopefully will soon test the new features.
