I am running RH 6.1 on a dual PII 450 with 256M RAM. I have used VMWare
for about four months and have found it quite stable, requiring
virtually zero maintenance, and with good performance. I use nearly the
full Office Pro suite and occasionally browse the web via VMWare, all
performing quite nicely.
I did try this on a single PPro 200 with VMWare version 1.5. The
performance was too sluggish. The new version 2.0 is supposed to be
quite a bit better, but I already had my new machine by then, so I can't
tell you what 2.0 might be like on the PPro.
