hello list. the wife wants to watch netflix "watch instantly" videos.
it requires a program to be installed in order to watch the videos.
said program is only supported under the w and mac os.

so i figured this would be a nice time to setup a virtual machine. so
ive been poking around with qemu. so far i have a windows machine
running but its is massively slow. loading up an IE window takes for
ever. i know there is some crazy emulation voodoo going on but is
there anything i can do to speed it up?

also it has not audio!

I'd recommend VirtualBox. It's very easy to set-up and use, and has a pretty decent speed.
