Just out of curiosity, have they considered running Windows under either
VMWare's free server offering or QEMU? That way they can keep all their
linuxy goodness and run the Windows based stuffs they need.

Nice try, but no it won't work. I can't remember, but you must have the [what's it called] direct hardware graphics drivers, that don't run in win4lin, VMware etc. I wonder what will happen with Xen?
