I run GSX 3.0 on my laptop.  We also run ESX 2.1 in production.  We are in the 
process of getting VirtualCenter 1.01, and will manage all of our ESX servers 
with that console.  I also run ESX 2.1 and 2.01 in my lab at home.  I'm going 
to be playing with V2P this weekend.  :D

For those who didn't know it already
VMWare Workstation is out now:

http://www.vmware.com/products/desktop/ws_features.html

Good that MS Virtual Server is capable of runnig up to 3.6 GB of VMs.
I think, that was the reason that VMWare threw away the 1 GB limit.
I love the new version.
We're running about 15 VMs (WI, CSG, RSA Ace Server, PS, Proxies, Web Server, 
SQL DS, etc.)with several WMWare Host (all only Workstation Version, no GSX or 
ESX) in production since nearly 2 years. Absolutely no problems and saved a lot 
of money and time.
I really love that product. I was alleready planning to upgrade to ESX but now 
it doesn't seems to be necesarry to spend a lot of money for really expensive 
licenses.
Everywhere I talk with other admins about VMWare Workstation, they're saying 
that they use is just for testing and demos. Why ? It runs perfect in 
production. Am I the only one who made this experience ?

Ciao, Daniel
