Yes. You use the -net tap option. It's kind of painful the first time

through, so here's a guide to one way (but not the only way) to do it:

You have to edit /etc/qemu-ifup and change the ETHER variable to be

the interface you want to bridge to,

and you have to run qemu with sudo, or at least sufficiently

privileges for it to create a tun(4)
The default qemu-ifup shows using a trunk(4) interface. You could also

set that up, but I haven't done it so I won't risk trying to tell you

how to do it. Read the manpage ;)
If you get qemu running Windows for you please tell me. My windows

hangs at the start of the partition boot loader under it.
