Been using VMware for 5 years now...even before it was free. What's nice is that VMware is more then an emulator. You run the entire guest OS as if it were on its own system. And, you can take snapshots of your running guest. That way when you mess up an install of an application your can *really* uninstall it. -- Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
