Windows/Linux Symbiosis - Not a Dream Anymore
,----[ Quote ]
| A quick search on Google for tutorials regarding Linux and Windows
| interoperability, will reveal a lot of guides on how to install (emulate)
| Windows on a virtual machine inside Linux or how to migrate from Windows to
| Linux or how to dual boot Windows and Linux, but what I was really looking
| for was a way to run Windows and Linux at the same time, on the same machine;
| sharing the same desktop, working with the applications from both operating
| systems at the same time, without having a virtual machine window open or God
| knows what else.

Running Windows Server at home
,----[ Quote ]
| One common alternative that's been posited to Windows Server in a home
| environment is Linux -- specifically, a user-friendly variety of Linux that's
| been written to coexist with Windows systems. Linux has come a long way from
| being a no-GUI, hackers-only system, thanks to the various development
| communities that have sprung up around it and created highly personable (and
| personalizable) versions of the operating system. Many of them can be
| installed on a given PC with relatively little hassle, and made to serve as a
| file or printer sharing system.

Office for Mac and the interoperability divide
,----[ Quote ]
| This is a relatively small problem for Mac users, right? I suppose so. The
| same thing, however, is true in the enterprise. Many prefer to run Linux for
| an increasing array of server-based applications. But they don't want to be
| stranded, just as I would be on my Mac without Office. Net net:
| interoperability is a Very Good Thing. It's good for open source, but it's
| also good for Microsoft (and everyone else, because no one has a complete
| lock on any particular area of enterprise software).
