It's a nice app that basically emulates a computer, so you can run an OS in a "VM" environement, so you can basically have windows, linux or any other PC OS running on your main machine, and you can network them. I used that allot at work to test certain network software to make sure it works in the environement it's going in. I can post screenshots if you want, I think I have a couple nice ones including a BSOD. :D

Can'd find the BSOD ones but here's some screenshots of VMware 5 You can either tab them or open multiple windows.

And Minnie-tonka, the VM stands for 'Virtual Machine'.

VMWare GSX and ESX Server are interesting products too :)

I use them to virtualize servers in data centers
