VMWare Fusion Images with a static IP Address on Mac OS X Snow Leopard

How to setup your VMWare Fusion images to use static IP addresses on Mac OS X

When you're just configuring a single server, having a static IP address for your server image isn't too important, but when you're configuring multi-server setups, it can be useful to duplicate a number of server images and give each a static IP address so you can consistently deploy to them.
