Hi Folks
Just checking applications for folks making the transistion.
Looking for apps/? that provide/emulate "ms windows" on Linux.
I am aware of VMWare[1], Win4Lin and Wine. Any others?
The particular application is written in visual basic if anyone has
relevant experiences/gotchas they would like to pass on.
[1] Yes, I am aware that WMWare is not in the same class as the other
two.
The big picture is that I've been asked to investigate setting up a
laptop for demos that will show this particular application crunching
data from a database and the web portal to load and retrieve converted
data.
So, I can either put LAMP (& others) onto xp/w2k/w2k3, or put this
application into an emulation on Linux.
And, any recommendations on brands/models (grunty) of laptops to look at
(i.e. minimal driver fiddles)?
TIA
