This message would probably have been more suited to the pspp-users list, so I'm CC'ing there.
There are two options that I can suggest:
1. Build and use PSPP under Cygwin.
2. Set up a separate GNU/Linux machine connected to your Windoze box using
Samba.
Option 1 is probably easiest, although Cygwin doesn't come with the plotutils
library already packaged, so you might not have PSPP's graphing capabilities,
unless you spend extra effort porting plotutils.
Option 2 gives you much more flexibility, but is harder to set up, especially
if you're a novice to GNU/Linux. Also, is means that you need a second machine
and a working ethernet between the two machines.
PSPP understands the datafiles used by spss, so there should be no problem
here with either option.

I do a lot of data processing using SPSS for windows... however it is VERY
expensive to licence. I am looking into using PSPP. What I want to be able
to do is either:
Run a linux distro in a 'window' in windows (if possible)
Or
do something similar to terminal serving from a Windows machine to a Linux
box hosting the software... also doubing up as a data Server
I would also like that the linux OS (hosted eiother way) could 'see' the
datafiles as well as the Windows OS that I would be using.
I have no experience of using Liunx. :-( ... Any ideas on where I could
start..
