[ubuntu] What form of VMware should I use for my new server?

Hi all,

I'm going to make the leap from Windows 2008 to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Server as I did some recent testing and there really is a dramatic improvement in web server response times when hosting on a Linux server.
This server will be a single guest o/s dedicated to hosting OTRS and SugarCRM CE for 10-20 agents/users (plus 5 OTRS customers at any one time). Not an huge demand but still enough to run a little slugish under our current older windows server.

The new production server will be:

Dell Poweredge R300
Quad Core Xeon L5410 (2.33GHZ)
8GB RAM

My question is: Which Ubuntu o/s should I install on the server to run VMware on?I imagined I would use Workstation 9 running on Ubuntu desktop (12.04) and the guest to be Ubuntu server (12.04).

Thanks in advance for any advice.
