Im looking for a Linux / Unix emulator for my Windows XP OS which will not only allow me to use Windows XP but will allow me to switch to Linux / Unix aswell.
What's the best Linux / Unix emulator for Windows XP?

Reply:If you just want to try Linux out, either download a LiveCD distro, or get a virtual machine. I recommend InnoTek VirtualBox, becuase, unlike VMWare Workstation, it is free, and unlike VirtualPC from Microsoft, it has no restrictions about running on a "Home" version of Windows.
Reply:VMWare is probably the best. I've successfully installed and run Ubuntu in a virtual machine using MS Virtual PC, but it was very slow.
Reply:There is a Unix OS made especially for windows - it's sold under the name "Linspire" but is made from the same company that produces the RedHat Fedora core type of product.
If you need help in partitioning, there is a program you can download called partition magic - way less confussing than XP standard.
