Does VMware Workstation offer consoler over network with something like VNC or RDP?
I'm fairly certain they both support VNC/RDP now. From what I've been reading as well on dates, they've both been supporting it for a little while.

I tried Fusion on my MacBook Pro back when I bought it. I did not like it and bought Parallels instead.

I had both and went back and forth on which one I liked all the time.

I haven't used VMware Workstation since the early 2000s. But I know that VBox has had both for a very long time now.

Well at almost $300 I can see why.

Yes, sure not going to spend $300 when VBox is free.

You can also use Vmware Player, It's free, main problem it that does not support snapshots.

Given the limitations of the free version, why it over VBox?

I prefer Vbox of course.

When I've used it I do like VMWare workstation but I won't pay the license myself so use VBox instead.
