Ben, Thanks, that’s sounds promising. Do you know if there are any particular hardware configuration requirements? I guess the thing I'm most concerned with is hard disk capacity and speed.

But I've had no success running Softimage and other 3D applications in a VM when it is running Linux. These days I prefer VirtulaBox over VMWare, but that is a personal preference thing.
