I'd love to be proven wrong :) 100% - and it even has its own proprietary Linux modules that the VMServer loads when starting up (virtual nics, hubs / switches, etc). I just thought that linux modules would be able to operate under linux-emu in BSD. Guess I was wrong on that one :-) But yeah, VMWare Workstation is not really something I'd use in production. VMWare Server only Linux / Windows / etc, and then we have the enterprise class ESX Server, which is a OS in itself....
