RTFM VMWare question



Just a quick VMWare question so I don't have to learn to read :-)
Given, Linux and Windows(9x) installed. Does VMWare install under Linux, 
and do I need to reinstall Windows. Or do I need to install VMWare first?

The question is really twofold:
First, My current desktop system is now tripple booting. I'm doing a test 
install of SuSE8.0 just to make sure everything works. I use Windoz only to 
talk to ATTBI customer disservice (which is infrequent). 

Secondly, I may purchanse a new laptop if mine is too expensive to repair, 
and I would probably want to use VMWare. The reason is that I am teaching a 
course in C at NEU this fall, and the last time I tought it, one of my 
students was having trouble compiling a C program under Visual C++, which 
was a configuration issue, but I did not have a solution. So, if I get a 
new laptop, I should have enough cycles to run either VMWare or Win4Lin.
