Hi, everyone,

     I currently run Debian (lenny) only on my workstation here.  I have
a short term need to run a software package which only exists for
windows (I can´t get it to install properly under wine).  I´d like to
run WinXP in a vm in order to do this without rebooting or working on
a separate computer.  I´m more interested in ease of setup than in
performance, since I can still work on other tasks in linux while running this. What would be the easiest way to do this; vmware,
Xen, bochs, or some other?  Thanks in advance for any advice.

-Chris

Hi

i am using Free VMware server, with which i am very happy. So it is up to you. For me it works good on Debian(Sid and Etch) or Debian Clones (*buntu, knoppix.)

good luck

Pavel
