With VMWare Tools installed, my Photoshop CS2 is much faster and responsive than it was on dedicated XP ...

I can open Win2000 fullscreen on one virtual desktop, and have my main linux desktop on another ... and toggling from Windows to Linux is easy as shit .... CRTL + ALT

One of the COOLEST features is the ability to SUSPEND the Windows Virtual Machine ... even when you power down your PC, once you reboot into linux, your Windows VM reloads with all your previous settings in about 4 seconds!

For all you XP users who are afraid to make the leap to Linux because of certain windows only apps, FUCK WINE OR CROSSOVER OFFICE - running a full Windows install in VMWare Server is SO FUCKING MUCH BETTER than even a dual boot !!!!!!!!
