I work in same way. A laptop running Win XP SP2 as
host and Fedora running in VMware environment. It
gives flexibility of carrying two operating systems in
same machine and then to carry out tests using nmap or
nessus from vmware. I am using this setup from
longtime and have nothing to comment over it. Setup
makes the host lil slow but nowa days cost for
hardware has gone way down so its not a trouble
anymore.
