Hi,

You wrote "vmtools" and "vmware." Is that 
<http://www.vmguys.com/vmtools/> or <http://www.vmware.com/>? Both? 
Something else?

It's really just idle curiosity. I had never heard of vmtools before, 
so I had to go look it up (it's Java XML stuff) and so it doesn't sound 
related, but I just thought I'd check.
