So...has anyone got this installed? And I consider myself a geek (otherwise i'm spending way too much time on the computer), but I've never used VMWare because I haven'[t had the need. Can anyone point me in the right direction for which version to grab, setting it up, using it, etc? Do any of you use it on daily basis? A couple of our clients use it, but I usually play with all the development software, not the server crizap->
