Yes, the lite version is less filling but still tastes great.

If for example you look at the download page for VMware Workstation 7.0.1 for Windows is shows two choices "Workstation for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit with tools" "File size: 514 MB" and "Workstation for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit without tools" "File size: 335 MB" so what is not obvious? One has VMware Tools included and the other doesn't. If you download and install the one without VMware Tools then you will need to let Workstation download the VMware Tools as needed.

Thanks for the replay.

I installed VMware lite and full and both installations had vmware tools folder. The only difference was some iso files that was present only in the full setup:

freebsd.iso

linux.iso

netware.iso

solaris.iso

windows.iso

winPre2k.iso
