Yeah, it was sort of fun to watch that thread as it occurred on LKML. Personally I felt the Phoronix article was a bit of a troll as the best he could do personally was say that he had problems a year ago, but I believe the kernel devs are telling the truth as best they know it about the number of bug reports they get. Let's remember however that they probably don't here much from those of us who use it successfully. What I'm not clear about Volker is whether _you_ are a user of Virtualbox and have had problems with recent versions yourself or just down on the application because of what you read? - Mark
