As you would expect, with Windows 7 only at a Release Candidate
phase, VMware hasn’t provided a Windows 7 template yet for
the creation of new virtual machines.
Consequently, you need to choose something “close”, or,
use the option, “Other” for the OS, and choose the
architecture (32 or 64 bit) Selecting “Windows Server
2008, 32bit” template is a nice choice, as everything appears
functional with the resulting VM. Selecting “Other,
32bit” produces generally the same .vmx VM config file, but
with a notable exception. No usable virtual NIC. (A
maximum CPU percentage is also lacking, but for just the
installation of the machine, the missing NIC is significant.)

I guess that to receive the loans from banks you ought to have a firm motivation. But, once I have got a secured loan, just because I was willing to buy a building.
