MS Virtual Server- SW Development Scenario

A related question to the ongoing thread of VMware.I have heard a lot about deploying Virtual Server for Software development and test environment rather than keeping 10 machines stacked under the developers tables.
But there is a small glitch.Each of our developers has / need access to office LAN for checking out emails/browsing internet etc. Now, Compliance dictates that development/test environments should be isolated with developers having little/no access to production except that they can have read/execute permissions on the software that they developed.
Virtual Sever 2005R2 allows me with two options:1. Virtual machines in their own internal network, accessible only through Remote Control after I enter into the host machines. 2. Virtual machines connected to the outside network (physical NIC of the host machine) and available via Remote desktop from anywhere in the LAN.
I don't want to assign two desktops to each developer. One for accessing his Development machines on Virtual Server, and the other to be able to access office emails/ browse internet etc.
What is the right way? Can I multihome developers desktop?
