I'll write this here instead of answering to each to keep the noise down :) Thanks a lot for the good ideas and comments! I'll simply collect the ideas and leave my cynical comments about lazy readers of computer magazines to myself :) (Everybody sees that qemu is waaay better than the others, why do they need to be shown? ;-) -run kernel by itself -user emulation (putty example in docs) -OSS -> independant of a company becoming bankrupt -free distributable -put on a live cd -put in a distro -can be used without the need to install anything -qemu does not need admin/root priviledges -usb tablet emulation -> no need to install vmware tools in client -can record audio (and with patch even mpegs) Thanks again for your input!
