VMware seems less intrusive,  when I tried win4lin it wanted to do all kinds of
things to my kernel.  That made me unhappy.

win4lin only does Win9x, no NT, 2000, XP.  A show stopper IMHO.

vmware also does other operating systems: BSD, Linux, OS/2, etc...  I frequently
run Linux in vmware on Linux as it is nice to have a virtual machine to trash, 
or appear on the network offering some service,  without messing with any of my
"real" hosts.  You get to pretend your using a mainframe.

vmware has some host-only network features which are nice for simulations.
