	I have used VMWare for over a year now.  I like it
but only use it when I have to, which is less and less as time
goes on.  More of the things that I used to do in NT, can 
now be done in LINUX.
	I do find though, if you want to run VMWare and
have the NT app run at a reasonable rate you should have
at least 256Meg of RAM.
	There is nothing that I used to do in a native NT
system that I can NOT do with VMWare installed NT.   I
am happy to say that most things I did in NT, I now do
in LINUX, faster and with less heartache and aggravation.
