It depends on what you need to do with it. If you want to work with multiple virtual hosts/clusters etc, I would recommend VMware.
If it's only for a single guest, VirtualBox should be sufficient and less resource intensive.
I have only limited experience with Qemu.

4. UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers
I know that Sun make s a version of Solaris for Sparc platforms and also an x86 (Intel/AMD) release of Solaris. Can an application that runs on Solaris/Sparc also run on a PC running the x86 release of Solaris? Would a different release be required or any re-compling of the application?
