Well as far as VM software goes, this is definitely one of the easiest to use when installing an OS. It has easy install which should be enough for newer users of a VM software.
As you know you can't run Windows 7 VM on MS virtual PC and I'm sorry but Virtual Box has been so buggy, I can't stand to use it unless I'm installing Linux of some flavor. VMware Player works flawlessly at least for me.
The only downside is you can't take snapshots and manage them in the free version. You can however, copy the VM image and put it aside in case you botch the current one.
All in all, a great VM that I am using exclusively, upgraded to workstation version, very very happy with it.
