VMWare worked great except for a resolution issue (I could display at most
800*600, I've installed the vmware tools on the guest OS but things did not
change).


Thinking about the current project, I think I'll either use wget, or
I'd be calling some ruby script via a cron job to handle it since I need
something tailor-made.

Both swish and wget are nice tools to be kept in my repository for later use
none the less.

Thank you for all your help.
