You might want to check out win4lin (if you already own win 98 etc.) they currently have a great deal ($49.00). http://www.netraverse.com/ http://www.digitalriver.com/dr/v2/ec_MAIN.Entry17c?CID=0&SID=40113&SP=10007&PN=5&PID=378897 I've used alot of my win 98 progs (including office2000, photoshop, cinema4d) w/ no problems. Its main drawbacks are: 1. lack of directx/direct draw which mostly shows up in games. 2. You need a winders license (win95, 98, 98se, me) and installation disk 3. Only 1 session of windows may be running at a time. 4. Newest kernel support may lag just a bit 5. usb support is through linux (ie winders would not find your usb camera Main plusses are: It often seems to run faster than win98 on the same machine. no need to dual boot. Programs install and run quickly. I'm a satisfied user, even at the $90.00 I paid. -- dh
