XP on VMware on Linux

Well I'm rather proud of my son, so I'll have to share.

After he installed gentoo on his new box, he installed VMware, and
then took my wife's XP restore disk, and installed XP on top of VMware.

He managed to get it to network and everything. He is using it to play
some 3D game that requires windows.

What amazes me is the performance. This thing screams. In fact, XP seems
to run better on VMware than native on my wife's new box.
