VMware player is virtualization product just like VirtualBox. It is offered free of charge for personal use by VMware corporation. VMware Player can run existing virtual appliances and create its own virtual machines (which require an operating system to be installed to be functional). It uses the same virtualization core as VMware Workstation, a similar program with more features, but not free of charge. Instead of buying and shipping hardware, simply provide use VMware Player along with a virtual machine containing your standardized desktop image.
VMware claims the Player offers better graphics, faster performance, and tighter integration than any other solution for virtualization.
