Before embarking on this course, I suggest you see if there are native
linux applications which will do the jobs for you - take a look at
this website:<br>

<br>
If there are no suitable equivalents for the software you wish to run,
I recommend VirtualBox, which from version 1.5 also includes built-in
"seamless" windows so that you can run windows applications under a
virtual machine and have them look like native Linux apps.<br>
