Because you don't compile them in when not needed

I kind of read the article in a different light, as in "now you can test linux and it just works" (as in from Windows) and that VirtualBox is adding something (read the article before you rip into me people).
Clearly it's not that way, but it reads it.

I'll be excited when they get the issues with SSL and such fixed. Windows Web Browsers and such don't work on HTTPS sites from what I've seen.
Edit: It's been a while since I've tried!)

I signed up with these guys for home use, literally 6 days ago. I've already gotten 2 warnings from the teenage kid clicking on links he shouldn't be. So far, loving it.

Doesn’t Hyper-V 2016 have something like that utilizing bitlocker or something like that?
