I already have VMWare for Windows (bought quite some time
ago before I decided to switch to OpenBSD). My reason for
wanting to be able to run VMWare natively on OpenBSD is
to avoid the security problems that running Windows (to run
VMWare to run OpenBSD) exposes me to when Windows
is connected to the internet.
