Has anyone tried out VMWare fusion? I rely on it at work and won't upgrade to Lion until I know it works. I have Lion at home, but not at work. :( Anyone have any experience with it?

Just about everything else I am not worried about; just this app.


*** Ignore, delete this if you can, it should be in the Lion form. :(

Been running it on Lion for almost a day now (guest OS is Windows XP). No issues that I've seen.
 
I installed Lion this AM. Didn't even think to shutdown my suspended VM. Just tried opening it and it fired right up. Fusion popped up it's registration page but that was the only thing I saw out of the ordinary. I haven't tried to test everything, but there are no obvious problems.
 
It did it a little more cautiously (and probably -completely- unnecessary): UNinstalled fusion on Snow Leopard, did the Lion update, then reinstalled fusion. Big sigh of relief when my VM was recognized and started up to as it was before.
