I went from VMware Workstation 4.5.2 to 5.0 and Windows XP Pro did not complain.
At least some site-licensed versions of XP Pro don't invoke WinXP activation at all. I have a dual-boot XP Pro/FC system and the XP side also boots in VMware. In theory, that should trigger the activation crap every time I switch hardware profiles, but it doesn't for my (corporate) XP.
Just FYI...
