Re: [cwe-lug] Win4Lin Pro now supports W2k, XP

[Ed Howland]

Just to clear this up, using the Wayback Machine, I went back in time to 
2001 and looked at the web site for Connectix (original vendors of 
VirtualPC) and there is no mention of a version for the host being 
Linux. So my memory was faulty.

In summary, you can use it to run Linux under Windows, but not the other 
way around.

So the next question:
Anybody played around with Xen from the Brits? Rumoured support in 
upcoming kernels for this. What about Windows running under it?

Speaking of a similar topic, when MS bought out Virtual PC, did they 
make it so you could no longer guest MS products under Linux.

MS Web page says these combo works:
Host :  Guest
Windows  : Windows
Windows  : OS/2
OS/X       : Windows
Journalists (eWeek, Newsforge) say MS admits this works
Host :  Guest
Windows : Linux
But has this combo disappeared:
Host :  Guest
Linux : Windows
Or is my memory faulty, and VirtualPC never supported this?
Thanks

I've always resisted this product becasue I don't own a copy of 
Windows 98 and much of what I need to install is NT 4 or greater.
$99.00 till 3/31/05

Great news!
