It says that:

You can get close to zero-install with VirtualBox. For starters, you don't have to create the TAP virtual adapter in the host. For a VirtualBox NAT adapter, VirtualBox does not provide the full TCP/IP stack to the VM. Essentially, it provides a TCP (only) proxy. While this breaks things like 'ping', it means you don't need a virtual host adapter in order to do networking from the guest.

Coming

With the advent of the PortableApps.com Launcher, VBox will definitely be coming. I talked to Chris Morgan about it on IRC a few weeks ago, and he told me he's "got dibs on VBox" - it'll probably be here soon. Smile
