Comment:
No, I don't think we should increase virtualHW.version above 6 at this
time. For example, we do not yet support USB 3.0. And, there is no point
in preventing people with fairly ancient (2007) VMware installations from
running Haiku as a guest OS.
And I don't think it's a good idea to increase numvcpus above 1 either. A
single core host CPU, like my AMD64, would not be able to run such a
virtual machine at all. Besides, that unsupported vCPU hack is pretty far
from what most people would consider a sane default.
