614063
Adempiere is an ERP Bazaar for Open Source Developers that contribute improvements of Compiere, CRM, Shopfloor, POS, Helpdesk, Financials Accounting, Supply Chain, Knowledge and Business apps in an open and unabated fashion. Focus is on the Community.   ADempiere 331b has its virtual machine for instant testing. This is of the latest binary release 3.3.1.b dated December 5, 2007.  All you need is VMPlayer to open the vmx file and you have the whole machine working within your machine. Pls follow the instructions on AVA from our wiki http://adempiere.com/wiki  Since this AVA is huge about 1.7gigs, I zipped it up with sevenzip (7z) and then split it into 6 smaller files of 79Mbs each.  So you have to download those together with the Create_ava_331b.exe  To extract the combined 7z file (466Mbs), you can either double click it to see if winrar does it for you or you need to install 7z.exe first. (This is already included and tested. Pls refer to   http://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip   for background info). Reason for using 7z is of its higher compression ratio than winrar or winzip.    Download all the machine files here http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=176962&package_id=249213&release_id=547389

Travis Swicegood is teasing us with some output from a script in his latest blog post:   So my free time of late (what there is of it) has been spent on a project that's getting really close to v0.1 release. In other words, its first functional release. If you've ever run a test using the PEAR installer or know what a .phpt file looks like, you might be able to guess what I've been up.   Keep an eye on his blog for more information on his "secret project".

(InfoWorld) - VMware launched the RC1 (first release candidate) of its Fusion virtualization software that lets Mac owners run Windows on Intel-based machines, one of the last steps toward finalizing its rival to Apple's own Boot Camp and Parallels's flagship virtual machine, Parallels. Fusion RC1, which can be downloaded free of charge from the VMware site, is "feature complete," said VMware. Among the changes since Beta 4, which was released last month, is "Unity" support for Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, and the 64-bit edition of Windows XP. Unity lets users run Windows applications directly from the Mac desktop without actually launching into a Windows VM (virtual machine); the previous version of Fusion only offered Unity support for Windows XP. VMware also cited RC1 improvements to Boot Camp VM performance, faster resume from the Mac's suspend state, numerous bug fixes and "experimental" support for the developer's edition of Mac OS X 10.5, a.k.a. Leopard released by Apple at last month's Worldwide Developers Conference. Fusion is on track for a final release next month, said VMware. Until then, it will continue to sell the VM software at the preorder price of $39.99; when the product ships, it will retail for $79.99. VMware's competitors include Apple, which currently gives away the dual-boot utility Boot Camp and plans to integrate it in Mac SO X 10.5 Leopard, due to ship in October; and Parallels Desktop for Mac, Apple-sanctioned VM software that shipped in Version 3.0 several weeks ago.
