Vendor OS support, list or experiences?

I've recently had a bad experience with Sun telling me "we won't support Solaris 10 on VMware ". Brings the question up in my mind but cannot find on VMware's site - is there a list of OS vendors that play nicely? If/when i need to open support tickets for Microsoft or Linux, will i meet the same brick wall?

THanks for these links! I'm trying to consolidate all the info out there from each OS vendor and software vendor i work with regarding their VM support stance. Sounds like great fodder for a wiki if anyone is running one for vm info.

One thing i have not found a clear statement on is Red Hat Enterprise, anyone have an official statement on that?
