BeOS 5 Developer Edition on VMware Workstation

As I've discovered today, despite popular belief, it is possible to install BeOS 5 in VMware Workstation, without any problems at all. The only thing is it took 2 hours to burn the CD (using the 1x speed-limited CDRwin demo, two strangely formatted ISOs and a CUE file).
Be warned, operating the cursor is hellishly slow during installation, and it's all in monochrome :(
But the operating system boots in full-colour glory :)
