That's what I figured - I already run an XP and W7 virt machines as well 
as sometimes RemixOS just for fun on my everyday machine and thought I 
could remote control.

the above GUI machines on my laptop without VT-d, then shouldn't I be 
able to run Libreelec?  Or, is it that I will just need the server/host 
setup with a gui?  And, if that's the case, then perhaps I run Libreelec 
on the server/host and not as a VM and the rest as VM?

Can't keep up - getting old...

Many thanks
