4.0 out of 5 stars good for windows and linux, July 12, 2005

This review is from: VMWARE WORKSTATION 4.X Upgrade for Windows (CD-ROM)
This is an excellent product if you want to make the most out of your good hardware box and not spending for an extra hardware. Suppose you have enough memory to utilize for an extra OS, enough disk space and plenty of NIC bandwidth (that we usually have), why not run an application in another virtual OS on top of the first one. Mind that, the physical connection of NIC is 1 per physical card so you need to put the virtual hosts/servers within the same VLAN or subnet. The security is also good, it just treats the virtual machine as another machine on the same network.

Portability of the defined virtual hosts from one box to another is another good thing, you just to need to copy the iamge file(s).

I tried to run Solaris 10 for x86 on it, no luck, I dont think they claim it does support either, so pretty clear, anyways Solaris 10 has zoning feature that you can use.

Overall good product for development and testbeds but I do not recommend for production environments.
