Yes, certainly. VMware just provides you with a virtual PC, with no software past the BIOS boot-up screen. You then have to provide whatever OS(es) you want to install as guest OS's. You put the floppy and/or CD in and install them to their own virtual disk, and then boot them up. I can confirm Protel runs well under Win2K Pro as a guest OS under VMware, under Linux as the host OS. There are still some rough edges communicating between Linux and Windows file systems, but that's probably because I didn't set it up right.
