	Hey all.  My question is does anyone use VMware to create a vitual Win2k 
	machine running under Linux (in my case RH 8.0)?  I know this is what the 
	software is supposed to do, but does anyone actually use it? 

	That question aside, my other related question is what happens when/if Win2k 
	gets hit by some kind of bomb while running under Linux via VMware? 
	Hopefully just the directory where Win2k is located gets trashed, right?  I 
	imagine this to be the case and I hope that when running under VMware the 
	"virtual" Win2k thinks that the it's disk is just what is contained in the 
	Linux directory where it is installed. 

	Greg
