Your Comment:

Today I received my Google Voice invite. Do you remember when Gmail was invite-only?... GV gives you the ability to have a centralized number...and have it ring you where ever you like, or not at all, depending on who is calling (and other rules you might set up)... here is the killer feature... totally free minutes and US Long Distance.

VirtualBox gives you the ability to run many operating systems (Windows, Linux) at the same time on the same physical hardware, plus many other options (like redundancy and such on larger systems).
