Has anyone ever tried to run a MythTV front end under VMWare Workstation
(Virtual machine running under Windows)?  Not really concerned about a back
end, but it would be pretty cool to be able to watch videos from my Windows
box without having to copy them from the Myth backend.  Someone mentioned
wlan and streaming.....but I haven't looked into that option at all.  A
friend of mine uses VMWare for a bunch of stuff so he had me download the
trial to check it out and a light bulb lit up in my head  ;-)

I've already got a virtual machine running Red Hat 9 up and running...and
it's actually pretty sweet!
