Ubuntu can now access Parallels Workstation for Linux, which allows users to run Windows applications, via the operating system's built-in update tool.
SWsoft has released a smaller-scale, less expensive version of its Virtuozzo software in an effort to encourage new users of the virtualization product, the company plans to announce on Wednesday.
