[NTLUG:Discuss] Running Windows Apps in Linux...

The problem with VMware is that the Guest OS which you install runs horribly
slow. You need to have a server grade machine for VMware to work
efficiently. 

This is my experience with VMware, not necessarily everyone's :)

If your not against spending a few $$$ look at VMWare.  I run it and 
Quicken works without a hitch.  When I first started using VMWare it 
didn't run any games worth a hoot but it's gotten allot better.
