I find it quite strange that there is no forum category for "Virtual Machines" or "VM" under the "Software" section on the forum home page. I don't see how one would even be able to post a thread in the correct forum over a topic regarding this. The reason why I think this is because, the topic of "Virtual Machines" encompasses almost a majority of the categories that are currently under the "Software" section on the forum home page. Now one could state that if it is about a specific OS they should talk about it in the category pertaining to that specific Host OS or Guest OS. But how about a thread that talks about the VM software in general? I do not seem to see any category currently where that thread would perfectly fit into.
 
If thats the case the we also need a forum for us Table Tennis players!! We can call it Ping Pong....catchy name huh??

Most VMs (Virtual Machines) require a HyperVisor, and that would fall under the purview of Operating System, I would think.
 
My sense is that most all of VM related threads are currently in the Security Forum. Seems to me that is the reason for VM's existence.
