VMWare runs slow on MacBook Pro

This will be my shortest post ever. When I first installed VMWare on my MacBook Pro with an 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, it was great! Over time, it sucked to the point that it took me about 15-20 minutes to load Excel. The answer – update RAM from 2 GB to 4 GB. To see if this is your problem, go to Application -> Utilities -> Activity Monitor and watch your system memory when you load something in VMWare.

Good Luck!
