Yuck. Does that mean all the RAM carved out for guest OS's must add up
to 1GB or less?

I was planning to put 3GB in the Linux box and reserve 2GB for VMware.
I was thinking I could run up to four guest OS's with 512MB each or
eight guest OS's with 256MB each. Sounds like I need to cut those
numbers in half to keep VMware under 1GB total.

Am I understanding this correctly?
