How about installing CentOS x86_64, and installing Windows XP as a virtual

If you've never installed a virtual machine, just say so and I'll simplify
it for you. It's only hard to figure it out for the first time.
I have strong experience with VMWare, with both Windows and Linux as
hosts. It has proven its performance limitations, and I'm trying to find
the most seamless solution to permit using full hardware functionality and
requisite applications. VMWare is a consideration.
We shall see, soon enough, what direction I end up with...
Please keep the insights/comments coming!
Thanks again to everyone for the great discussion thus far!

Subject: [BBLISA] Adobe products under Linux?
Also sent to Codeweavers - [what is this list's insights?]
I have a 32 GB, dual quad-core desktop machine and was considering 32-
bit
Windows XP w/SP2, but discovered it only supports up to 4 GB RAM, so
that idea
is shot.
Next in line is 64-bit CentOS 5. The major need for Windows would be
very
active use of Adobe Acrobat 8, Photoshop CS3, and Illustrator CS3.
There may also be the need to copy/transfer information among Matlab,
Mathematica, and Microsoft-based applications, from Office 2003 to the
above-mentioned ones.
Do you support these, and how complete is your product line for 64-bit
CentOS
5?
Based on your answer, I'll know whether to go with a virtual machine-
based
solution, which means a Windows VM, or can remain Linux-only, with your
solution.
Thank you very much.
Scott
