Default VMware Fusion 3

As per this discussion in another thread recently, VMware fusion 3 is officially out.

By private betaing it, i recieved a 25% off coupon for it. I already ordered it though, so if anyone needs the coupon let me know in a PM.

"The VMware Fusion™ team would like to thank you for your participation in the VMware Fusion private beta program. Without your help, we wouldn't have been able to deliver over 50 new features, making VMware Fusion 3 the best way to run Windows on your Mac.

As a small token of appreciation, VMware is pleased to offer you a special discount for 25% off the upgrade to (or purchase of) VMware Fusion 3 at the VMware online store. The promo code will be good until the end of the year (Midnight PT on 12/31/09). This is a unique promotional coupon code that may only be used once."

Fusion is the Apple OSX specific iteration of their virtualization software.

I think the vm's created with fusion are compatible with workstation, however, I haven't had the inclination to test that out fully.

As an aside, if anyone misses out on the coupon posted... There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of checking, if you want to go the student discount route. There's a link on the VM Fusion product page and all they ask from you is the name of your school... it's also a free-form text field too...

Student discount brings it from $79US to $39US.
