Actually, that is not entirely true. VMWare Workstation installed on a
32-bit OS will support a 64-bit guest.. AFAIK, the CPU must be 64-bit
with hardware virtualization turned on in the BIOS. AFAIK, we have one
Financial Engineer in the office who is running this way. He was out of
the office on Monday when the question came up. I don't know about
VMWare Player, but we will find out definitively today since my coworker
is installing it on one of her laptops all running XP 32-bit.
