I'll second John's suggestion to go with VMWare Server. Being also
pretty new and noob to all these, my first attempt at running WinXP
and Win2003 Server in VMWare server was almost plain sailing.

Xen on the other hand, well, let's just say I spent more time on it
and that machine was re-installed with a non-Xen kernel. And that was
on CentOS5 which supposedly works better with Xen. Maybe it's my
noobness, but the same noob skill applied to VMWare worked fine so...

Given VMWare's long history, I think Xen probably just needs more time
to all the details right.
