VMware Fusion 4 beta testing begins

VMware Fusion 4 is now in private beta.

Some VMware users received Fusion 4 beta invitations this week, and screenshots are already online. There’s no official word if the VMware Fusion 4 beta will be available to the general public at a later date, or when the final release will come down. But the site Fusion4Upgrade.com speculates the final release will coincide with Apple’s release of the Mac OS X Lion operating system this summer.
