Can you point to an easily understandable 'howto' on installing and
using Windows in VirtualBox ?
Thanks.

just did this myself using Oracle:
<http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html>

I'm on a debian-based system so 'sudo dkpg -i ....deb' got me going. I have a license for Windows 7 so I pointed VB to the Windows 7 iso. it is almost self-explanatory but have a look at:

<https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26217_01/E26796/html/qs-create-vm.html>

worked wonderfully until the computer failed (unrelated).
