This is the biggest miss of them all. When you are an IT pro person now a days you need x64 bits enviroments. So i hate to say it but i still need VMWARE Server 1.0.1 and waiting for LongHorn See ya Jeroen What i miss the most is x64 guest systems. This is the biggest miss of them all.

The new features are a bit slim for 3 years of development: - Support for x64 Windows as a host operating system - Support for hardware virtualization support - Support for Windows Vista as a guest and host operating system (not 64 bit) - Support for PXE network booting of virtual machines - Support for the use of fullscreen virtual machines on multi-monitor systems (VM still stays on just one monitor though) Still missing basic things like: - USB Support - Cloning virtual machines - Snapshot technology - Running a VM as a service One of the main reasons for running virtual machines is testing en running legacy machines. But Microsoft stops the support for the following guest OS's: - MS-DOS® 6.22 - Windows 95 - Windows 98 - Windows Millennium Edition - Windows NT 4.0 Workstation The only supported OS's are: Vista, XP, 2000, 98 SE and OS/2 warp.
