I'd like to be able to run Dragon Naturally Speaking under guest XP using Linux as the host. That would need sound input from the Mic (with Mic boost enabled). [Also, ideally, Qemu would share the sound card with the host OS, rather than taking an exclusive lock on it] I'm quite prepared to contribute the £99 I'd otherwise have to spend on VMWare. Other features I'd like to see are the ability to run at 1600x1200 resolution, and support for a wheel mouse. Regards Richard
