No more raw disk access. You may be able to take along existing 1.x VM definitions with raw partitions (and a big maybe, because the RawDisk type itself is AWOL), but it is pretty much out of the question to create them on a new 2.0 installation. That means that the class of people using VMWare Server to run an existing Windows installation as the occasional guest are SOL.

This is the second time I downloaded that 500MB blob to try it out (2.0.0 RC2 turned out to be unusable). After spending 3 days trying to even get it to compile the kernel modules properly, I think VirtualBox just gained a new adept...
