How about Plex or Boches ? I dunno if Plex is usable now, it's been a few years now. If not, there's always Boches if you don't mind working on a virtual '80286 with pentium registers' :)

Here is a base page that liks out to several open source virtual machines (along with linking to other commercial products). I actually use both VMWare and Virtual PC 7 (the latter on my Mac OS X system to run Windows XP Pro for various testing projects and other work)...

Checkout qEmu for an open source alternative to VMware.

Strangely I never made VMWare working. Virtual PC is much easier to use, I installed all Windows since Win98 for software testing, it works great.
