Offtopic: I wonder if both MSM and HTRegz are from Canada, eh? heh
What's Canada???

Anyways... There's a difference between what you're doing phish and what is being described... The Hypervisor technology would be similar to ESX Technology, making it different from all other VMWare Products...

Doing what you're doing with VMWare, *could* leave you no better off than doing it all on a single box. Take the recent MS Advisory affecting Virtual Server / PC...It allowed admin of 1 guest os to control anything (host or other guests)... should a similar problem be found in VMWare Workstation / Server, then access to host or any guest == compromise of all...

I'd really like to see what will happen to this agreement when it's demonstrated that VMWare is violating the GPL... it may lead to an interesting turn of events.
