I was going to post a comment along those lines, but you've saved me the trouble; cheers. :)
(We tend to use FC3 rather than SuSE, but other than that pretty much the same situation.)

Microsoft starts supporting, er, Linux (Register) Posted Apr 5, 2006 18:12 UTC (Wed) by rmn30 (guest, #36960) [Link] Another possibility for Linux under windows is Cooperative Linux [http://www.colinux.org/ ] which I experimented with a while back. No GUI support but then its always possible to use a windows X server (e.g. xorg with cygwin) and X forwarding.

This does mean you can get much better performance under it, but it doesn't offer the same protection (eg, the "guest" machine can corrupt the memory of the host, hanging it and any other running guest machines).
