Some of you may remember the russian team Parallels. These guys were hired by the german NetSys GmbH to develop a new server virtualization product to compete with VMware Workstation and Microsoft Virtual PC.
The product launched on January 2004 was called TwoOSTwo.
TwoOSTwo lived just 4 months then disappeared without any notice. Few weeks after it reapperead on May 2004 with the new name of SVISTA. Apparently the Parallels team was still developing TwoOSTwo/SVISTA, even without mention on their site.
Now, more than one year later, the Parallels team is back, launching theri last product: Parallels Workstation 2.0.
Features Parallels Workstation 2.0 offers are very similar to ones of TwoOSTwo and SVISTA. Even the release number remember us where their previous works stopped.
Need I to suspect Parallels Workstation 2.0 is a fork of TwoOSTwo or SVISTA?
You can investigate from yourself since the product, actually in beta, is already available for download at this location: http://www.parallels.com/en/download
