WINE and Crossover (Crossover being a commercial embellishment _of_ 
WINE) don't run Windows. They support running Windows applications on 
Linux.

VMware is good, polished, professional, supported and available in a 
zero-cost (but not open source) version. I'd say you can't go wrong 
with it.

Xen is not something I know about, but others will sure comment.

There's something called VirtualBox (<http://www.virtualbox.org/>), 
which is in the Xen / VMware model of whole-machine virtualization.
