Win4Lin forces you to upgrade if you upgrade to a newer version of 
SuSE, whereas VMWare has remained compatible. I can install the same 
version of VMWare, be it Express 2 or Workstation 3 if I have RH 7.0, 
Mandrake 8.0, or SuSE 7.2, and it will run. Win4Lin 2 will not 
install except on RH7.0. I would have to upgrade to a newer version 
if I want to run SuSE 7.2. VMWare is more expensive, but you can 
install several operating systems on it, and have more flexibility. 
Plus it supports USB hardware.

Regards.
