I just finally took home my VMWare Workstation Win XP VM and ran it in VMWare Fusion on my mac. It's so beautiful! Happiness! – adambox – 2010-03-04T18:13:41.343

Could also do it with virtualbox on win/mac/linux for free.

Correct. And VirtualBox will run that VMWare instance that you have already created. – dacracot – 2010-01-06T16:10:57.887
