I'm curious: assuming 'VMware 5.5' refers to VMware Workstation 5.5, why 
did you choose that over VMware Server 1.0.2, the no-cost product?  I 
don't believe VMware Workstation has any features over VMware Server, and 
VMware Convertor can copy VMs between versions (if there is a 
even a difference in format at all) if you needed to move machines from 
previous setups.
