This would mean that the tests that are consistently (and predictably) failing under vmware will not show up on the test failures, so we can investigate actual failures.
Well, as far as I know, except for Direct3D and maybe sound issues, VMware systems behave like normal Windows boxes. In addition the tests I have run are on VMware 5.5 which does not have any of the 3D acceleration that they added in 6.0. So the relevant tests should be easy to skip, either by detecting lack of any 3D support or in the worst case by detecting the name of the graphics /sound card.
