Converting .iso to .vmx

For those of you who do not want to download VMware converter or any of the other .iso to .vmx converters out there, I would like to suggest a hacking alternative to read an iso file from a CD using VMware. Consider the following .vmx file, as viewed by Notepad:

.encoding = "windows-1252"
config.version = "8"
virtualHW.version = "4"
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
memsize = "256"
ide1:0.present = "TRUE"
ide1:0.fileName = "livecd.iso"
ide1:0.deviceType = "cdrom-image"
ethernet0.present = "TRUE"
usb.present = "TRUE"
sound.present = "TRUE"
sound.virtualDev = "es1371"
displayName = "LiveCD"
guestOS = "otherlinux"
nvram = "otherlinux.nvram"

workingDir = "."
extendedConfigFile = "livecd.vmxf"
virtualHW.productCompatibility = "hosted"
floppy0.present = "FALSE"

All you need to do is copy the above file and save it as something.vmx. Everywhere you see livecd, simply replace it with the name of your file. It is really as simple as that... The "otherlinux" can be changed to "otherwindows" if you are trying to run a windows.iso file.
