There also a modest discussion forum too.

This place is AWESOME!!! I have been browsing there for a couple of months trying to build a good VM Box with what I had. Fortunately, a $350 solution quickly turned into a $15 solution, and I couldnt be happier. Their unofficial whitelist is VERY handy. Also, they have decent documentation of any workarounds/fixes if needed. I FINALLY can get my new study lab going!

Don't forget vSphere (ESX 4.0) went GA on Tuesday and has different HCL/driver compatibility than 3.5... especially for FT.

Use the online HCL as it is always up-to-date and covers ESX 3.0 and later. PDFs are so last year.
