Don't have VMware myself so I can't say for sure one way or the other.
 I know that there are reports of trying it, but most of them seem to
have failed.  I don't know why exactly but it seems that coLinux
doesn't work in VMs like VMWare or Virtual PC.  It's probablly
something that is 'fixable' in coLinux in a way that it would work,
but no one with programming skills and VMware/Virtual PC has attempted
it.
