For multicore VMs, you can get VMWare Server free from http://www.vmware.com/download/server/
As the industry's leading VM technology, you can expect support for most of the same things that VirtualBox supports. Snapshots, for sure.
I used to have VMWare but I find VirtualBox easier to use; overall it feels simpler and lighter. Also, maybe they've fixed this but the last time I tried VMWare, it would annoyingly restrain the mouse within the boundaries of the virtual machine window and would require you to hit a keyboard key to free it. With VirtualBox, when you cross the window boundary the mouse cursor changes, but other than that it looks and feels like a native Windows window.
