Not true! VMware will bind as many as you tell it to :-) In general,
eth0 is mapped to vmnet0 and eth1 should be mapped to vmnet2. vmnet1
is automatically mapped to host-only networking. You can reconfigure
this behavior with vmware-config.pl during installation or at any
time. I usually map both my wired and wireless interfaces on the same
virtual machine and don't have issues. One time I mapped 24
interfaces for a project I was doing at Cisco :-)
