I was catching up some old podcast of Security Now when I came across this great article: Virtual Machine History & Technology.
Here's the description:
"Steve and Leo discuss the historical beginnings of Virtual Machine technology, from the 40-year-old IBM VM/360 operating system through virtual machine language emulators and today's VMware and Virtual PC solutions. This kicks off a multi-episode discussion of the tremendous security benefits and practical uses of modern day Virtual Machine technology."
Besides the VM technology itself, some oldies they refer to:
- real mode to protected mode evolution
- 8086/80286/80386 evolution
- EMM386, Quarterdeck Expanded Memory Manager (remember the need to load drivers into high mem?)
- DESQView, DESKView/X and Windows 3
- Native versus P-Code discussion
- Writing directly to video memory at B000 or B800
- Borland's Turbo Pascal
