I think if QEMU is to be adopted by the masses it will need to come up with a quality GUI-Frontend. However the CLI can always be in place for those who want and prefer to use it. Otherwise, I think most users will prefer to stay with VMware and especially that there VMware player AND VMware server edition is now FREE. I appreciate the effort that some are making to develop a GUI for QEMU - There's a few project I see that trying to achieve this. But, I wish they all could come together and work together to develop a nice GUI. I would like to see a sub-project exist in the QEMU site so all can come and contribute to that effort. joe WaxDragon wrote: > On 6/15/06, kadil wrote: >> On Wed, 2006-06-14 at 18:10 +0200, Oliver Gerlich wrote: >> Real world, gui's are just so easy & desirable, especially if the gui is >> consistent across os's, and part of the original distro.
