Yesterday (today if you're in the US), Sun released the latest version of its virtualisation solution, VirtualBox 3.1. Among speed improvements and other smaller features, the biggest news is that Virtualox 3.1 introduces something called teleportation: you can move running VMs between machines - servers or clients, different architectures, different host operating systems, it doesn't matter to VirtualBox. Coincidentally, this reminded me of an idea I once had about moving running applications between machines.

I was hoping to see an official release supporting FreeBSD as a host system. People have been sucessful in compiling the opensource version but it does not support (if I recall correctly) USB mounting and device mapping. Also, there is no use of the GPU also in the opensource version right?
Hope the next version will support FreeBSD.
