Thank you Holger, the link is most appreciated. 

Just for the archive, 

- I also find another interesting article from there too -- "Running
Microsoft Windows inside Debian: qemu"

- I happened to have found another emulator, xen
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xen, reading from its web page
(http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/performance.html), it
seems to be extremely fast, even (much) faster than the VMware, using the
latest version of them when doing the comparison.

So, for simplicity, go for qemu; for performance go for xen.
