A basic GUI VIClient for ESXi consoles

$

I'd like to be able to install a bare-metal hypervisor on my laptop, and still use it as a laptop.

 

I'd like to see a basic GUI VI Client that would run on the console of an ESXi for host and allow for:

 

1) Switching between full-screen consoles (including GUI OSs like Windows) of VMs.

 

2) Basic VM control/management -- power on/off, snapshot and clone, connect/disconnect networking.

 

This would be VERY COOL on a laptop.  Yes, I know that you can largely do this now with Server or Workstation, but you need a host OS and the performance isn't what it is with ESX.  There's also some gotchas if you want more than 4GB of RAM in that you need to run a 64 bit host OS.
