Palo Alto, Calif., March 6, 2002 -- VMware, Inc., the leading provider of virtual computing software for industry-standard computers, today announced that it has awarded Alison Hettrick with a complimentary lifetime license to VMware Workstation as special recognition for being the 1,000,000th registered user of its virtualization software.
