I'm setting up a training room computer system and we want to be able
to capture the screen of a teaching session as video and WME does
this.

Now we at the concept stage of using VMWare/MSVPC to keep all our
classes in their own virtual machines, but we still want to be able to
record the screen video.

Will WME run under VMWare/MSVPC and record the screen video for the
virtual machine it's running on?

Will VME run on the Windows *host* that the VM is running on and
capture the screen video of the VM's screen?

Will the performance suck? We're ready to get a multiprocessor
machine so WME and the VM will not contend for cycles.

Memory. Lots of memory. (did I say we'll be running Photoshop CS2
under VM and want to run WME alongside to capture the session?)

it will be nice if we can get it to work.

Thanks
