Want to run Microsoft Windows software in Linux? You can! VMware allows
you to install and run other operating systems inside a window in X windows.
You can install Windows 95/98/NT/2000, FreeBSD, Solaris, and many more.
3D Games do not work yet, but virtually all office and productivity software
runs excellent. http://www.vmware.com
