Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Any idea if this is just hype?

I've run Windows in VMs (not actually Stealth VM) on a linux box so it's definitely possible. I'm not sure that you'd end up with a machine that would run *all* the Windows programs on your hard disk though as not all are polite enough to use their IO properly, and VMs generally need valid system calls (or at least they used to).

It's rather cool to have two different versions of Windows running independently in different windows on your linux desktop. :)
