That used to be true, but hasn't been true for a while.  VMWare
will grow your hard drive file as needed.  You can also have it
set to not commit changes until after exiting the virtual 
environment. So, if you screw something up in windows, you can
exit out and just discard your disk changes.

Cheers,
Tanner

 This would be a very good time to hang out with the Open Source 
 people, before they get formally reclassified as a national security 
 threat. -- Bruce Sterling
