VMware

I use Workstation (legit, paid for) at work and Server everywhere else, and that does for me (I've run four simultaneous VMs in Server 1.x - not recommended, but it works). One of the early Server 2.0 Betas was awful and I never went back.

If VirtualBox really is quicker than Server, supports more than one CPU, and will run as a service, then I may well give it a g sometime. Since I run 90% of my VMs locally (the 10% being run on a headless Linux box in London), RDP doesn't interest me (yet).
