Is it? How easy is it to run VM-in-VM with VMware? (That's a serious
question; I have never even looked at it myself. Work has never
required it, and, like all closed-source software, it's simply not
under consideration for my home use. Someday I want to learn enough of
the x86 hypervisor hardware facilities to build a hypervisor of my own,
but so far opportunity and inclination have not coincided for that.)
