I'm looking to start using using Fusion VM's for client testing. Tired of booting between 4 OS partitions on my test machine.

From a hardware performance stand point, is a current shipping Quad-Core 12GB Mac Pro with a large external drive sufficient to run 4 OS's for testing purposes? They're rarely going to be actively 'used' simultaneously, I simply want them running and available to jump between as I test policies and so forth.

Or do I need to go for the gold and get the 6-Core?
