Try win4lin. It lets you run windows as a window inside your GNU/Linux
environment. Unlike VMWare and friends it is not a VM. Also, unlike
WINE it actually works and works well. It will even let windows use
(read/write) to your GNU/Linux file systems and such. It is not free,
but neither is M$ Windows (so I assume you dont have a problem with
that) and it is by far the best way to 'suffer' M$ while not having to
'leave' a real operating system.
