Hey, question for you.
I haven't paid much attention in years to virtualization within Windows, as I mainly use Linux.
I used to use VirtualBox on Windows to set up VMs of Windows XP for people who needed it for running older applications or VMs for trying out Linux.
Is VirtualBox still the 'go-to' software for that?
Is there anything else that is recommended?
