[COMP] Re: Running MS Windows from Linux

I would prefer to have one of my other housemates use my linux machine for
her work without disturbing the work I do on my Windows machine.  I can do
whatever work on my Linux machine from Windows, but I can't do the opposite.
There are many other things I could do if I had a program like this.

I did find a very cool program that will enable such remote Windows
computing, but I have to get Windows 2000 server in order for it to work.
Check it out.

Hi,

What's wrong with, say, IE or Word maximized in a VNC?
Too much overhead?
