The pithy ruminations from Andrew Hume on 
<[lopsa-tech] VMs> were:

VMS? Hmmm... I haven't worked with VAX/VMS for an awfully long time. :)

[Was I the only one who first saw the Subject line as "VMS", not "VM"s?]

=> any recommendations for/against any particular flavour of VM?

I've had better experience with VirtualBox (the Oracle proprietary flavor)
than with VMWare.

=> i will most likely be running RHEL6 inside them, but may be not.

I would imagine that the host OS is a more critical choice for the best
selection of VM than the guest.
