VMware brings Virtualization to a USB drive
VMware is introducing Monday a public beta version of ACE 2 Enterprise Edition, an upgrade of its two-year-old ACE program for virtualizing desktop computers so they can run multiple software or operating systems. One of the new features is Pocket ACE, which allows the user to store the ACE desktop virtualization tool on a USB (universal serial bus) drive, a portable hard drive or an Apple iPod, plug it into a remote computer, and run the virtualization software on that computer.
VMware’s Pocket ACE is designed for mobile workers who may not have a laptop with them in the field, but could use an available desktop computer and run the company’s virtualization platform from the USB drive, said Jerry Chen, director of desktop platforms and solutions for VMware.
