You can also mount those Windows XP and Windows Vista NTFS partitions for free 
if you're willing to jump through a few hoops by using Sun's open-source 
VirtualBox solution like this:

Virtualbox probably doesn't run Windows as fast as Win4Solaris does and it's a 
little more difficult to get advanced features going plus it doesn't have the 
all the USB support and Windows driver support that Win4Solaris does. However, 
Virtualbox is free and it is open source, so if you want more features in it, 
feel free to write the code and add them yourself ;-)

As you can see, the only limit here is your own imagination and how much you 
enjoy or don't enjoy tinkering around with a real System V based Unix operating 
system that probably has the best file system and best observability tools of 
any operating system ever.
