I've loaded virtual box with Xp SP2 on Ubuntu, and was able to start
Netflix movies and they would play; but it pegged the CPU (AMD
Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+) to such an extent that the
controls were unusable and the only way to stop the video was to kill
at least the X server and possibly reboot (I don't quite remember).
