You can do all that with VMWare Server. It's almost got the same capabilities as VMWare Workstation but can't play sound in the VM and I think v1 doesn't support USB2, but I have a feeling v2 does. I've used Workstation, Server v1 and Server v2, although I couldn't seem to get the web browser interface to v2 working for some reason. I prefer the console based system that v1 has so have been using that for the past year. (I used to use a Linux box and had a licensed version of Workstation on that, but you can't use the same license for a different host OS).
