Esx server/vi client /VC / which can be downloaded and tried for at least a month

Hello,

Could some one point me to the version of esx server/vi client /VC server versions which can be trial downloaded and tried. ( downlaods section shows Vmsphere as trial for 2 months)

My aim is to run esx server as a VM inside vmware workstation as in Xtravirt documents. ( I had earlier run esx 3.0 on workstation 6.0.2 with VC 2.0 and Vi client 2.5 )

If i could get the same versions also that would be fine. But it would have been great if i could run all of them on trial versions as i could connect to VC and login as a user and add VMs other than administrator.

Thanks
