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 Chris -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Daniel Schoppmann Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2004 3:25 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] VMWare 4.5 is out now ! 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 ?
