I don't see why not, but I haven't tried it. The issue with Winmodems is
that they use software drivers that are only available for Windows. With

Don't know for sure, but if you've got the damn thing to work in Linux,
then probably yes. It invents a Windows modem (in fact, its own *virtual*
Winmodem, how 'bout dat?) and supplies that to Windows.

The approach is drastically different. Wine does not allow you to run
Windows. It allows you to run some Windows applications. If you

Ed, Dave and Bret,
Thanks for your replies and for setting me straight! Your posts are
keepers and helped clarify what I had been wondering about for awhile. The
options you mentioned will make this linux newbie's life easier in
eventually weaning myself off of windows.
I love this list.
Cheers

Yup, you're wrong. VMware is a virtual system and allows you to run your
guest
I suspect that most of the aforementioned products require having Linux
and Windows running on two systems at the same time, but I could be wrong.
My question, is, does a product exist that will reliably allow running
windows software while using linux on a dual-boot system? As much as I
would lik
Win4Lin is most definitely *not* a free product.

Also win4lin works. I believe that is a free product. If you plan on
using 95/98 within linux then give it a shot.
Personally I'm running vmware. It's VERY flexable and you can run 95 /
98 / ME / 2000 / XP / BSD / Solaris.
Not a bad product :-)
