15 minutes to using your existing Windows install & apps in Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| Here’s a simple guide to using your existing Windows install inside 
| Ubuntu - and still being able to start it from your hard disk if you 
| need. Unlike previous guides, it takes around 15 minutes and doesn’t 
| require any terminal use.

| Many would-be Linux users don't make the leap because there are one or
| two Windows applications they just can't live without. That doesn't
| have to hold them back anymore.

Windows games in Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Gamers like to be able to play all their games and get right to
| gaming instead of messing with configurations. Even if their
| games were available for Linux, switching to Linux seemed like
| a bad choice until recently, as only a very small amount of
| commercial games have official Linux-support.
| 
| [...]
| 
| Cedega has added many unique features not found in Wine, like
| compatibility with most modern copy-protections and a Games Disc
| Database in which profiles optimized for each of the games in
| the database are available, as well as a GUI for managing
| installed games.
| 
| Cedega costs only $5 month, but you have to sign up for at
| least 3 months, yet trying it out is not a budget-killer -
| you can always cancel your subscription.
