Anybody Using Multiple Alternate OS VMs as Primary Desktop Systems?

     Hi, I have been using VMware Player on my Linux host system for a few years now to provide an alternate Windows XP desktop.  My everyday usage is primarily with the Linux host system, but there are some Windows-only applications I want to use so I usually have a WinXP vm running in the background for quick access to those programs.  This usage model has served my needs but I am curious if anyone is running a completely virtualized system where all of their multiple OS primary use desktops are running as Player or Workstation vms under a simplified "hypervisor" host OS (a Linux server OS maybe?)   Not sure if this really makes sense for home desktop use but I wanted to see if any others have gone down this road already.  Thanks in advance for any responses.
