So, Jared, I have heard of VmWare which is not as far as I know Open Source(Free). I don't know of Win4Lin, is it Open Source? and won't you email me a link to the site.

Regards
Denham

Forget it.

Get Suse  7.2 or 7.3, or the latest version of RedHat.

If you want to run Windoze too,  get VmWare or Win4Lin.

Win4Lin works with win95/98.

Vmware is more flexible and will work with Win2k.

I've found Win98 with Win4Lin to be more stable than Win98 by itself.

This question is a little off the mark.  I will be ordering a new Dell PC (8200) in the near future.  I would like to know which OS I should go with. XP Professional or W2000?  Any suggestions?  Anyone have any experience with
XP Prof.?  Pluses / minuses?

Thanks,

Ken
