The standards body IEEE has a list of something that's called OUI. If this is a new TLA (Three Letter Acronym) for you, it expands to Organizational Unique Identifier.

An OUI is actually one or more ranges of MAC adresses assigned to an organization that's issuing network cards (real or virtual).

And wouldn't you know, XenSource, recently acquired by Citrix, has it's own OUI.

This prompted a new release of EasyMAC, the MAC address generator.

The new features are:

• Generation of valid XenSource MAC addresses.
• A new option to output only the MAC address, without any extra text.

The hardware address generator EasyMAC! has been updated to version 1.1. It's now more suitable for any kind of use, not only for VMware.

After reading an article at the OpenVZ Wiki, I saw that people are using this little tool for other purposes than making MAC addresses for VMware.

So, the tool now makes completely random global MAC addresses, in addition to VMware specific addresses.

Here's the new beta release of VMware Fusion, VMware on Mac.

And it turns out that the 3D rumours were true!
We are talking DirectX 8.1 here, only on Windows XP SP2 and only for a selection of games.
Yep, that's right: No Vista in full 3D yet.

Funny I should mention Vista, because Fusion really has better support for it.
Also networking has gotten better (read: bridged networking).
You're getting snapshot support and it will run on OS X 10.5 (Leopard).

There are still a lot of unsolved issues, and I'm not sure if they've turned off debugging in this beta release.
