I was able to unzip it with 7zip, but then when I tried to launch the VMX it just says:

Unable to open configuration file "C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\haiku-19664\Haiku.vmx":


(null)

Yes all of that including the "null" is the alert box error message, please repackage this VM and make sure it works!. I look forward to the new image.

The required .vmx can be found at http://haiku-os.org/downloads . You can also download the nightly build of the VMWare appliance.

I couldn't download. Why? 0 B to download. I am curious to test it.

What a crazy little OS. I rendered 3 of the GL demo teapots with 3 light sources at ~30fps in a VMware session without VMware tools. The desktop is at 1280x1024. This OS is super efficient. If I were making arcade hardware, or a game console I might consider this OS because of the speed and small footprint.
