Won't this create some kind of rift in the space time continuum or something?

It's pretty easy to do this with VMWare anyway.

Why would you install windows in the first place?

As much as we might rightly hate windows, I *have* to use windows at work....however, now I don't have to use windows software! No, I can't do it the other way around (windows inside linux) 'cause I have to run the windows boot my IT guys setup. So...don't hate on this idea too fast.

maybe in the future when linux becomes so popular and wine grows so powerful the developpers may think of writing apps for wine which can aslo run on windows, and most importantly, it performs better on linux using wine ;-)

I did install it on my Dell Latitude D630. Unfortunately, it ran like crap. Didn't see anything in the forums that would be helpful in understanding why it takes upwards of 20 minutes to completely boot up. Firewall is turned completely off and I had plenty of disk space and RAM (2GB). I'll give it another try when the next beta is released.

WUBI is the better way to introduce linux to window users, andLinux is good for those familiar with linux but are forced to use windows.

Cygwin allows you to compile linux source to use windows system calls. This provides a series of .dll files, which can be distributed along with the compiled linux app without needing cygwin installed (Think firefox). While this is nice, when it works, you have to build your system essentially from the ground up, compiling dependencies of dependencies of dependencies of what you want from source. AndLinux, on the other hand, has a version of the kernal that runs in Windows, this does require more memory than Cygwin, and has a slower startup, but it is far more compatible. It is running a debian/ubuntu system, so you can just install .deb files. As for speed, it seems slightly slower than cygwin, but much faster than windows. Using Xming as the graphical shell, it does sometimes take a while to start graphical programs. I have both cygwin, and andLinux, and I recommend andLinux, unless you are trying to compile programs to run natively in windows. Oh, and, andLinux has virtually no online help, but after you get used to the differences in hardware configuration, you don't need it. Treat it like a normal ubuntu system and ask the ubuntu people for help. Cygwin, on the other hand, is a pain to get help. Asking a program developer for help with cygwin, they usually tell you it is a cygwin problem and go ask the cygwin devs. Asking the cygwin devs often leads to a 'it's not a cygwin problem, go ask the program devs'. If you know what you are doing, this shouldn't be a problem, otherwise, stick with andLinux. One thing is that the latest version of andLinux installs ubuntu 6.x, or maybe 7.x. You have to update to the latest version on your own. update-manager -d or -c will do this, but expect problems. Updating to 8.10 broke my xming shortcuts and locked root because it didn't auto log in anymore. (I had no root password set, needed auto log in to get root access.) Before upgrading, make a backup of the .drv file.Regards!

i have a question? im trying in install win seven royal xp and i have ubuntu10.04 ..i tryed xp first ubuntu gives you the option install ubuntu like any other software...but when i boot up it shows like this.......xpubuntu when i click ubuntu it takes to grub and shows all the linux options and the xp bootand when i click the xp boot inside grub it takes me back to the first boot screen . the question i have is it possible to have just the grub boot and the xp boot file inside grub have xp load just from grub like ubuntu does.. and is it possible to windows 7 load the same way..where when you turn the system on just grub screen loads and all the options are inside grub and it loads just from grub.
