VMware宣布推出了服务器版虚拟软件VMware Server最终正式版本——VMware Server for Windows / Linux 1.0 Build 28343。作为商业版VMware GSX Server的继任者，VMware Server for Linux/Windows允许用户同时运行多个操作系统，网络管理员也可以方便地测试新操作系统，且风险大大降低。

目前，VMware正面临来自微软Virtual PC 2004与日俱增的竞争威胁。这款软件由2003年被微软收购的Connectix公司开发，同样允许用户虚拟安装运行操作系统。

VMware Server具体支持操作系统如下：

Full support for SUSE Linux 10.1 as host and guest operating systems.
