.I *think* I understand what Player is now, it can be used to run 'already created' VM system images but that's all. Thinking about
it
it's probably not very useful except in an environment where there
are
a lot of pretty similar machines as, presumably, an image created on one machine will only run satisfactorily on another where the
hardware
is *reasonably* similar.
No the whole point of VMware is that the hardware can be nothing like the host the guest was created on. (ok it has to be x86 arch and have enough diskpace to contain the image, but that's it)
