Yes, I've seen it, and ESX is not affordable for the minimal use it will 
run. Can anyone that has vmware installed try a comparison vmware vs 
wine ? I already have some servers running on the box, and resources 
need to be balanced between all of this...

By the way I will try to run just a x server through ssh, what will be a 
completely new challenge to me (CLI power for years now).
