Just for Fun – VMware just got greener

September 3rd, 2009 |

So what do you get when you mix VMware ESX and some dirt, and then a you add a little enthousiasm? Exactly, you get a paludarium.

The word paludarium comes from the word “palus” basically meaning mud, and it is kind of a cross between an aquarium and a terrarium. I have been building my own little world inside this glass box for the past months. Very moist, very green. Being a VMware fan I just had to combine these two hobbies. Why? Well that one is obvious, because you *can*!

So now my tiny little jungle is fully controlled by a virtual machine. Lighting, rain, fog, even thunder! Just when everyone thought it wasn’t possible, VMware just got greener!
