VMware Fusion instead of Wine?

Fusion is a bad idea for a bittorrent client.

Darwine uses far less CPU, RAM, and hard drive space. Not to mention it has access to the entire hard drive instead of your home folder and whatever you allocate to the VM image.

Steps 1 and 2 are point and click. Not difficult. Step 3 involves copying and pasting commands. Again, not difficult. Steps 4 and 5 are additional tips that aren't needed. I dont get how it's not user friendly when it literally gives the commands to copy and paste in.

Whereas with Fusion, the tutorial you linked to is more of a 'power user' thing then anything that i wrote is. Hardly 'user friendly' :)

Besides, who wants to waste cpu and ram to run windows when it's not needed?

edit: and the point of this thread is to run uTorrent with Darwine (or Wine) for those of us that want to. If you dont want to, your choice. Just discuss VMWare in the proper place. Start your own thread or something. Just not here.
