yes, I suggested this myself in an earlier email. I guess you missed it ;)

I agree, this sounds a much easier to maintain solution.

Actually, VMWare now release their "Server" product for free. I've used it 
myself on linux to run an XP guest quite successfully. See

http://www.vmware.com/products/server/

That said, I don't think virtualisation is the answer for you here, as no 
solution is going to allow you to run a 64 but guest on a 32 bit host, in a 
sane way...
