One option that was not mentioned here, which might be easier under
some circumstances, is using rdesktop to connect to some windows
machine you have a login on.
The company might have a dedicated server for such use, or you might

1. You can use VMWare server which is free and you can use it to
create your machine and either use the VMWare server with your image
or with VMWare player. Just make sure to insall VMWare tools on your
guest OS.

Interesting question, because I know you (Hetz) experimented with qemu a lot - what are the reasons to not just continue
to use qemu
Well, QEMU as it stands now is still slower compared to VMWare, even
with the latest kqemu kernel module, and I assumed Aharon wanted the
fastest solution.
Quite a lot of things are changing internally at this time in QEMU,
both in other platform emulation, GUI, and other changes which takes

Well, if you would test the latest KQEMU kernel module, you might be
surprised at the speed hike it got. It's not fast as VMWare, but it's
getting very close. The speed difference now is at around ~30%
