Spoon, formerly Xenocode, just launched a new version of their virtual application studio and I thought you'd like to know a bit about it. In the past, the company has offered application virtualization and streaming software that made it really easy for organizations to deliver and update Windows applications to a distributed and diverse workforce.
Here's what Spoon has to say about Virtual Application Studio 2011
Virtual Application Studio 2011 includes support for virtualizing 64-bit applications and the .NET 4.0 Framework, as well as dozens of new application templates including Microsoft Office 2010, Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8, and 9, Mozilla Firefox 2, 3, and 4, and Google Chrome 4, 5, and 6. Virtual Application Studio 2011 also includes comprehensive support for executing legacy applications side-by-side on Windows 7.
Spoon applications run in isolated “sandboxes,” enabling multiple applications to run side-by-side without conflicts, dependencies, or modifications to the host PC. By emulating core operating system features in user mode, Spoon allows legacy applications to run on Windows 7 and locked-down desktops. Spoon virtual applications can be deployed in standalone executables and MSI packages, in private clouds using Spoon Server, or via the Web at Spoon.net.
Spoon Virtual Application Studio 2011 is available for download at www.spoon.net/Studio.
