This seems attractive. However, with Microsoft's Virtual PC, that 
could be useful only if one does not have to make use of any advanced 
features of a graphic card since MS's generic graphic driver 
simulation  is very primitive indeed.

I don't know what VMWare does with the graphic card driver 
simulation. Perhaps someone on the list has used VMWare and can tell 
me if a graphic driver can be installed or if it uses the driver of 
the host system.
