well i dont know about you...but i think that having a saperate station is much better than vmware..besides....do u really think it deserves 20k...just like do u really think XP deserves whatever it costs....they just skyrocket their prices 'cause they know they do not have a competing product.besides i did not say you have to patch it...it was only a personal opinion of what i would do if i ever felt the need to install vmware since i am seriously not the kinda guy who will shell out that kind of money for a peice of software(and i sincerely hope these mailing lists are not monitored...by people who would not take these comments politely...:)).
