The one requirement is having a lot of ram, since the vm's ram + however much ram the host needs is quite a bit. With 768MB, it's not too bad - but it could be better. Also, vmware's audio performance is - not so great. If you're just using ssh from the window side, it's not that much of an issue - since you can just play mp3s and such on windows.
