I can't say for sure, but I've been having no trouble with my undemanding
couple of applications under XP on VMware Fusion 2.0.6.
One of the many nice things about an 8-core Mac Pro (mine is the generation
before the current, even faster one) is that if you find it necessary or
handy
to leave a virtualized Windows instance running... you pretty much don't even
notice it's there, in terms of any impact on the performance of your Mac user
interface or applications. This was not what I observed back when I tried it
on a dual-core laptop.
