If you run vm on a host with cpu that has frequency scaling( Intel
Speedstep,AMD PowerNow, AMD Cool'n'Quiet), then you're affected by the
following:

As to your point regarding desktop cpu's also affected by this - most cpu's
today (desktop,mobile) have frequency scaling.

Note, this issue is not limited to VMware only, AFAIK Microsoft
VirtualPC/Server is also affected by this.

I read the relevant passage. I (VMWare workstation hosted on Linux) am
running it on a laptop with an Intel chip, but the other people (VMWare
Server hosted on Windows XP) run it on a desktop. The problem happens
both here and there.
