what program? and what do dual boots have to do with anything?

I believe this person is talking about running Linux and Windows on the same machine.

Is that possible?
How bout running Unix and windoze?

Absolutely, infact that is what most Linux/Unix home users do. I personally have never used Unix but I do have a dedicated Linux machine and I know when I installed it, that was definately an option. I am running RedHat 7.2 on a PI 200 mhz with 64mb RAM, and it works great. If you have a copy of Unix and feel up to a chalenge, try it.

It is a great experience, and you really learn a lot about how an OS actually works. Windows sheilds you from so many details, so you've got unparalleled customisation options with Linux, if you're good enough

Please do it, comercial distros of Linux are nearly as safe as Windows itself, and sets up LILO (the dual-boot prog, that's normally used) &amp; everything for you. Even funkier are that it can tell your network &amp; internet setting from Windows, and impliment them in Linux.

Oh, did I mention it's free?

oops, that was a post from SO long ago (back when there was probably only 1 or 2 articles on the site - so it wasn't hard to guess what we were talking about).

anyway the program is XOSL.

Anyone using VMWare?
