yes, it does and it does it remarkably well. Still if you had anything
in Linux and consequently could live solely on Linux without using a
windows vm, you would get a cost benefit.

When using Windows in a VM, you do not save anything moneywise, except
admin work like backups and vm relocations, which are by far easier
under vmware. And I do not buy that windows does not cost anything,
because "it is already there". In fact, windows costs all the time and
if it would be despensible, cost would be lower.

Well, not here in Germany. And I would love to install a Linux based
Faxserver under vmware. OK, this is not windows in vmware, but ISDN
still does not work in VMWARE, unrelated to the OS that you use ;-))

Agreed and it is getting better, both in SuSE and vmware.
