In any case you won't get as good a performance as the physical 
hardware, especially in the 3d graphics department. The type of 
virtualization matters, as does the host and guest operating system, 
with one type able to 'directly' pass specific physical devices through 
to a single guest machine.

You would have found:

The software=operating system on the guest thinks that it is running on 
real generic hardware, although it would usually be set up to use an X 
vmware mouse and display driver.
