VMWare server 2.0 (I believe) is the latest release. It works like a charm. I do not believe you have any toasting concerns by installing and using it. There is a lot of support for it on the web mostly at vmware.com.
I personally use VMWare Workstation on Fedora 10 and Fusion on my mac. Both products rock. Makes testing and development a lot easier. Plus if you absolutely have to have Windows product that will not run on Wine, then installing an small instance of Windows with the app is the way to go.
I also use this technology at work with VMWare Infrastructure 3. Very powerful. There are other options in the market today such as Xen (Red Hat), Citrix, and even Windows Hypervisor. But they all seem to be playing catchup to VMWare's capability.

Ok, too many jobs want it, so I am going to put it on my system. Now, I've done
some research, and what I need to do is not a bare metal install, but rather an
install *over* an existing operating system (Linux, of course).
So, if I d/l the freeware version (VMWare server, I think it is), are there any
gotchas that will toast my system? Are there things I need to watch for, like
"oh, in 5pt type, and written by a lawyer, translated by someone for whom
English is a third language, you need to do this and that first, and then check
this option"?
