You'd be able to create a fairly small image with Postgresql, apache etc installed and run the VM on Windows or Linux platforms using vmware player. SQLite is not nearly powerful enough to handle the requirements. There are several embedded type browsers which may work, but I'd rather see the efforts of the development team focused on developing the code for Ledger-SMB and not get side tracked with other things at this point. (I do think that expanding the number of users is a good thing, but there are so many issues that need to be fixed/addressed or features that should be added that the developers' time is better spent working on those items).
