SEIV on Linux

[dogscoff]

OK, here's the rply I got. Doesn't really answer our question but it sounds promising.

"Ah, I've heard of Wine. I don't have it though. I hear it's pretty flakey,
and doesn't work very well - mainly because windows evolved much faster
than they could keep up. I don't even know if they're still working on it.
I do have an alternative though, that guys here at university swear by -
and it really seems to work (although, again I don't have it, mainly
because I'm running an old Linux distribution and I'm pretty thick when it
comes to Unix admin). It's called VMWare. I've seen it running and you'd
really not know. I went to a meeting in London a month or so back and the
guy was running linux on his laptop. He started up this VMWare program,
hit the boot button, and another PC started up in a window. He hit the
fullscreen, and it looked like a normal PC. Windows 2000 started, and he
used Powerpoint to deliver his presentation. It was solid, and fast, and
looked exactly like a Windows PC. And when it crashed, he just killed the
VMWare app, and restarted it. It's not a free program - but there's ways
and means."
