I use VMWWare Fusion on my Mac and VMWare Workstation on my Windows laptop.
Both work great and I have not really had any issues (except for a few connectivity issues between VM and host on Mac - but that seemed to be resolved in an update quite a while ago). My only concern in your case is that if you are going to be running multiple VM's at one time, 6GB of RAM might not be adequate enough.
