That's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure I want to fork out $200 for vmware workstation. Do you know if vmware player would be sufficient?

Have seen procedures for using VMware Player to install a new system over an existing downloaded image. Can't create a new VM from scratch.

I'm also wondering, if vmware is installed does it add yet another constant process even when "not" in use?

Can't answer that one definitively, but I know VMware Workstation under Linux does have some overhead with the services it starts, so I'd guess that there would be something similar running for XP VMware Player.
