Hi,
I run Mandriva as my main operating system, but on a second computer I have windows 98 to run a small [windows only] accounting program. Can I join the computers together and operate the accounts program through Linux?
The program will run on a Mack using virtual PC. Does linux have a similar program and would windows have to be loaded onto the computer?
Linux has a variety of virtualization options. If you are going to virtualize a desktop, I would highly recommend VirtualBox. QEmu and VMWare Server are also other popular options for desktop virtualization. -- simon
