I have read that VMWare on Windows has limitations of: 1. It can only have max of 2 CPU's
2. It can only have max 4GB RAM (not a problem for 32 bit)

As a result, its use in production is limited.

Moreover, Oracle suppot is fuzzy for vmware as pointed by others. Received on Thu May 03 2007 - 08:58:09 CDT
