I started using FreeBSD a few months ago, and I use VirtualBox. I read https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/virtualization.html, and now, I found out that this document is too old and it needs updates. 1. The name Parallels for Mac OS X is not correct, the official name is 'Parallels Desktop for Mac'. 2. Virtual PC is discontinued 9 years ago, and supports Windows 7. All support for Windows 7 is stopped from January 2020, so I think we don't need that documentation page. Hyper-V is the successor of Virtual PC, but it does not support FreeBSD. 3. There should be VMWare Workstation, not just for macOS because Workstation is for Windows and Linux. Also, after FreeBSD is installed on VMWarer as a guest OS, the user should install open-vm-tools or open-vm-tools-nox11. 4. There should be a note for VirtualBox that guest addition for FreeBSD is discontinued from 6.x. This is my first report about Virtualization documents. There are few more problems, but I have to review it and find a solution for now.
