[dba-Tech] VirtualBox

OK - I'm frustrated with Virtual Box.  Any opinions on VM Ware or Windows
Virtual PC as an alternative?
 
TIA

Dear List:
 
I need to set up two virtual machines - one Office 2010 pro, one Office 2013
pro, for testing.  I used Oracle's VM Virtual Box to create a 2007 machine.
But I cannot remember how I got it to 'see' the DVD drive on my comp - the
host.  Obviously, I did it because I set up a virtual machine with Office
2007, but dipped if I can remember how and get it done for 2010 and 2013.
 
Can someone give me a lead on this?
