Well now you know come to think of it, no pain no gain. :) For those of you who have never upgraded, the process is very painless. You should not have any problems with VmWare or virtual machines for that matter; however, you are strongly encouraged to backup, backup, and backup. There are never any guarantees that something won't go wrong. There is sufficient information available to you for checking compatibility of software and hardware. If you fail to take these steps and you break something, you get to keep the pieces. I know it is tempting to just ask questions on the list, but you would do to conduct your own research as well. Information is power and best laid plans etc. :)
