        VMWare Fusion 3.0 Is Here: Upgrade So Far Is Painless.

        Noticed it available, upgraded from 2.0 and downloaded it online ($40). Took about 15 minutes to download. 

        Installed in less than 10 minutes. 

        Hey, the screen doesn't do screwy things when I boot up Windows 7 any more. 

        Noticed that the VMWare Tools did not update on their own, so I updated them (took a couple minutes and a reboot).

        Picked an Aero theme in Windows 7 and, voila!, I now have Aero on a virtual machine.

        Don't have anything else to report right now because I've been running it maybe 15 minutes. But that was a very quick upgrade for such a major release. I thought it might need to mess with my VM files (I run XP Pro and Windows 7 RC), but no. This was a very impressive and completely painless upgrade process.
