Its actually not too bad; the mouse doesn't work quite right in Windows
and the resolution is strange on a text console. Yes, it does work better
using VNC installed in the guest OS. Yet, its nice to be able to jump into
a "physical console" of a VM if VNC/RDP/SSH/whatever isn't working. I am
coming from VMware ESX, so there are a few creature comforts I'm trying to
regain with Xen. =)

Thanks for your help.
