I have Ubuntu 10.10 on my machine with Virtual Box.  I opened Virtual 
Box and loaded Windows XP (it will work for flavers of Windows).  Now 
when I need a program in Windows, I click on the VB and Windows loads.  
No problems so far.  When I shut down Windows, it takes me right back to 
the Ubuntu screen.

Hope this helps.
