Regularly installing stable or development test builds and using them in your day-to-day work is one of the best ways you can help us improve the !VirtualBox user experience.

And if you do not have a support contract, a willingness to use test builds increases your chances of receiving informal support. (And using development test builds increases your chances of your voice being heard in our development process.) |
