Mike, So far neither you or Scott have installed the vmware tools on your upgraded vm's and you are working fine. I have convinced Scott to make a copy of his vm and attempt to install the tools. I have a feeling that it will crash but would like a verification. I have posted a ticket with VMWare and will probably give Freedom Scientific a call today.
