The reason I suggested VMware Workstation is that it just works OOTB. The OP needs to concentrate on training - not on setting up VirtualBox, etc.

From personal experience, I know that VMware Workstation plays very nicely with Microsoft Windows. Setup, snapshots, clones and teardown of appliances and groups of appliances is very simple. Much nicer than VirtualBox or any other the other free solutions.

Yes, that it is. However, it is slower and a bit clunkier (I have used both, and loved VMware server 1.x but 2.x onward have Tomcat and have made decisions I loathe).
