Fusion 2 Beta released

It's all virtualization here on Technology Update this week apparently...

VMware released the beta of Fusion 2.0 this week, including a bunch of cool new features:

• True Multiple Display Support
• DirectX 9.0 with Shader Model 2 graphics
• Virtual Printing - Virtual machines automatically detect and map your default Mac printer and all configured Mac printers
• New Virtual Machine Library
• Shared Folders Improvements
• Integrated VMware Importer and VMware Converter (P2V)
• USB Improvements
• Allow USB mice/tablets in a virtual machine without custom configuration
• Faster USB Storage performance
• Full Screen Improvements
• Support super large displays that are over 2048 (MacBook and MacBook Air) or 4096 (iMac, MacBook Pro, Mac Pro) pixels wide
• Mouse and Keyboard Improvements - Support advanced USB input devices like graphics tablets

These are pretty significant improvements and should make running virtual apps on Macs all that much better. Plus, it will be a free upgrade for Fusion 1.x users when it is released for real. Good stuff.
