Yes, it makes sense to keep the run vm process short and simple by using the logic you propose and not to display any dialog in the process. An alternative approach for the removal of the ram from the snapshot can be to display a check box in the clone vm from snapshot dialog so that the user will be able to select whether to take the memory from the snapshot or not. and in the preview snapshot process to display a dialog with such check box also. that way we will be able to create both with memory state and without memory state VMs from snapshot that contains memory state. > Also it is important to discard the ram on all forms of Run VM.
