오라클 버추얼박스 Oracle VirtualBox 7.0.4 릴리즈 소식

안녕하세요.

 

지난 11월 19일 (KST 기준)으로 버추얼 박스의 7.0.4 버전 소식이 나왔네요.

 

참고로, vmware 는 workstation pro 17 버전이 릴리즈 되고, 맥용 fusion 은 13 버전이 나왔는데요.

 

퍼블릭 클라우드가 판을 치는 세상에서도 여전이 vm 기반 기술은 많이 사용되고 개선되고 있는데, 나날히 좋아지고 있는것 같네요.

 

이번 릴리즈가 나오던 시기에 제가 베트남 출장중이라 포스팅이 다소 좀 늦어졌네요.

 

기능적인 부분보다는 대부분 버그 픽스에 집중된 버전이라고 할 수 있겠네요.

 

개인적으로 저는 MAC M1 지원 버추얼박스 출시를 기다리고 있습니다 .
