I hate the default applications feature. It drives me mad. Still trying to figure how to make files not try to start vmware
That should definately not be default behaviour. It should be configurable and easy to switch off.

Henrik go to VMware Fusion > Preferences > Default Applications
or go to the virtual machine's settings and then click Applications button.

I'd be great if you guys could include compatibility for Quartz inside a Mac OS X Server virtual machine.
