VMware Workstation is a "virtual PC" software. It enables you to run two or more Windows, DOS, LINUX systems simultaneously on one machine. Compared with the "multi-boot" system, VMWare uses a completely different concept. A multi-boot system can only run one system at a time, and the machine needs to be restarted when the system is switched. VMWare is truly "simultaneously" running, and multiple operating systems are switched on the platform of the main system just like standard Windows applications. Moreover, you can perform virtual partitioning and configuration for each operating system without affecting the data on the real hard disk. You can even connect several virtual machines to form a local area network through the network card, which is extremely convenient.
