VirtualBox 3.0 has been in beta for less than a month, but Sun Microsystems has now decided to officially release this major update to their virtualization software. Most notably, VirtualBox 3.0 finally brings support for SMP (Symmetric Multi-Processing) to guest operating systems...

So far the only OS I can get running correctly under VirtualBox 3.0 Beta is Windows 7 x86.

It will be interesting to see the performance numbers on this... how they compare to native.
