Alex nodded in agreement. "Thanks, John. I owe you one. I'll make sure to return the favor sometime."
John nodded sympathetically. "I know the drill. Sometimes I need to do the same thing. What's your current setup?" FULL VMware Workstation Pro 12.5.9 Build 7535481 -x64-
"Just trying to get some work done, John," Alex replied, not looking up from his screen. "I'm working on a project that requires me to test some software on different operating systems." Alex nodded in agreement
Alex's eyes widened. "You mean the full version, not the free Player?" I'll make sure to return the favor sometime
As John walked Alex through the process, he couldn't help but think back to the times when he first started using VMware. It was a few years ago, when he was working on a project that required him to test software on multiple platforms. He had been using a physical machine for each OS, but it was taking up too much space and was becoming a logistical nightmare.
Alex was impressed. "This is amazing. I had no idea VMware Workstation Pro was so powerful."
Over the next few hours, John and Alex worked together to set up multiple virtual machines on Alex's laptop. They created VMs for Windows 10, Windows 7, and Linux, each with its own set of software and configurations.
