This is correct. VMWare simply creates a virtual machine envinronment hosted by one operating sytem (Linux or NT) under which another operating system that runs on the same hardware may boot. But the actual running of that operating system occurs directly on the hardware, it is not emulated. In this respect, MOL provides a similar services to LinuxPPC, allowing MacOS (which runs on the same type of hardware) to boot in an environment hosted under LinuxPPC. But to run Windows binaries, you would need a true emulator, like say Bochs... -raf
