Vmware Server didn't work out to well on Ubuntu. Installed Virtualbox 1.6 instead. Have XP virtual machine running all my necessary apps. Setting up a host interface was a bit of a nightmare. In the end the manual on Virtualbox.org had the correct way to do it. Fourms and blogs did not help at all, in fact they confused the situation. But innotek/Sun's directions did not mention that you needed to use the Intel 10/1000 MT virtual network card instead of the default. So setup a vbox fake interface and bind it and eth0 to br0. Install the intel drivers with NAT'ed the default way, and you golden. Sorry no pictures yet.
On another note, Asus's XG is probably on the way, and Steam's Cloud is soon to be. Great way to minimalize the need for a single machine, nice tools for OTE
