VMI compatible with Server 2003?

[randomnut]

Hey,

I am currently using the new free version of ESXi, and have several windows 2003 guests. I notice in the settings you can enable VMI, is this just for linux or is it compatible with 2003? Is it worth enabling?

thanks

That's because Google is the WORST search engine ever, despite what the tabloids and tech (hype) sites say. Yahoo! Is the ONLY search engine I use Google is evil.

There is an article that actually compares the 2 side by side, and Yahoo is faster, more precise, and more efficient, but of course, people have a different opinion, because Google get's the hype and the attention, but hype isn't everything.

That was about as useful and objective as spam in my inbox. Is it possible to rehijack this thread back from this spammer?
