Need to run some VM's, them being able to talk to each other and other machines on the real network is a must

I've never used networking in a VM before, i just use them for testing nlite/vlite/linux etc.. so VirtualBox does the job fine for that

I'm guessing VMware is the best, are there free versions that can do what I want?

Thanks
 
sweet, free (used to be a pay for product right? now you just pay for support i guess?)

now i've got a good reason to bulk up the spec on my work machine (might match my home machine!)
 
i could never get it working properly when i used it at home (the networking side of vbox) i won't rule that out, because it's mega fast
 
cheers

currently on a 256mb laptop in work, lol if i ran a VM on this it would die, and mario kart wii is much more fun than testing VM's when i'm at home :D
