I think he means to have linux running, use something like alt-tab and
switch to a running copy of windows, basicly swapout and suspend the
whole OS on the run. Would be really cool and useful, but I think the
design of an OS like Linus and Windows is too tied to the hardware to do
this (imagine network connections, time and date dependent processes,
ppp ...). Nearest alternative would be something like vmware or
win4lin, though wasnt there something for DOS years ago that basicly did
just that?
