However, I'm not sure if you can still purchase a VMware 2 license. I have a VMware 3 license lying around for a year now, but never used it since VMware 3 hasn't made its way into ports. I hope it will happen, but until then I'm fine with version 2. Occasionally there is some discussion about VMware 3 on the -emulation list. You might search the archive. Karel.
