Your VMware Workstation 6.0 license is valid for Workstation 6.5. I'm running 6.5 (with one thing you need to do to get around a segfault) running great on F10 x64 PR (rawhide). I ran it on F9 before that. It's definitely worth upgrading - Unity is extremely cool. The F10 hack: Prior to running vmware-config.pl, run the following as root: mv /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary.old Also, on F10, you need to make the changes referenced in the following VMware KB article to fix keyboard mapping issues: http://communities.vmware.com/message/1090760#1090760 Hope that helps!
