Max,
Thanks for the corrections. I didn't realize server had full screen.
I'll have to look into that. And no shared folders is easy enough to get
around with WinSCP to your host OS (or setup a samba server).
I have a Linux workstation and a MacBook Pro here in the office. I used
server for WinXP "access" until I got the Mac (now using Parallels
Desktop over there).

VMWare server does allow the creation of VMs. If I understand some of
the things I'm reading (and my use here at work of server and esx),
major differences between server and it's payware cousin VMWare
workstation are:
- Server runs as a Windows service/Linux daemon
- Server is client/server based. You use a console application to
access your VM. (something akin to VNC)
- Features Workstation has that Server does not: snapshotting of VMs,
full screen mode, shared folders
Shawn,
You can actually create one snapshot in Server, but you don't get the
option of having the snapshot manager like say in Workstation. Other
than that, the web client, and the console connection are really cool
on the network like you mention. Server actually does indeed support
full screen mode. Basically, you're losing the snapshot manager and
gaining the console/web client.
