It seems to me that I'll take a "suck it and see" approach after getting the new hardware. If Vmware doesn't work for me then I've lost nothing and can just use the new machine in the way I'm using my present one.
I think you will get on with it quite well. I am running Workstation on a AMD 64 with 1GB of Ram. It runs Windows XP well enough that running fullscreen (and excepting 3D graphics) it is very hard to tell..I can leave XP running and still have heavy stuff running on the host machine with little or no perceptible performance loss.
In fact so much so the XP machine often gets left running and forgotten about on the 4th workspace.
