VMWare?

[Lorenzo Prince]

However, if you are running any kind of servers, a web site, mail server,
etc., It would be better to run vmware, because you would have to run your
servers on the windows boot as well, which is not good for mail servers,
because you wouldn't be able to check the linux server under windows or
the windows server under linux.  As far as setting up x-windows, it worked
the first time I typed startx on both of my slackware systems.
