Well VM presents either an LSI logic driver or a Buslogic driver fro the
disk. For the Network card its either an AMDPCInet driver or a specific
VMware driver.
The hardware presented is not as big a deal as the performance you get from
within the virtual layer. I have been outlining a whitepaper comparing the
two (apples to apples) but have been looking for a vendor to sponsor it so I
can compare on more than just the G1 hardware in my basement.
Anyway, hit me offline if you need more info and check out our free chapter
on VMware ESX at brianmadden.com (also some whitepapers at VMguru.com)

Subject: [THIN] VMware vs VS2005
Attn VMware afficionados,
What hardware does VM ESX present to a Windows OS? I see that the
motherboard is an Intel 440BX. What NIC does it show up as? What about
SCSI? Microsoft shows up an an Intel NIC and Adaptec SCSI. My goal is to
build a matrix comparing the two in how the hardware is represented to the
guest OS.
Thanks,
adam
