Hello Dear!

It is possible even to run Windows applications in linux. There are a lot of
ways of doing it.
1. using windows emulator "WINE", you can run smaller applications like
'winzip' , 'solitaire' etc in linux.
2. using 'VMWARE'(I think it is from VMWARE.com), you can install even
windows 98 in linux box. For that you need to install that VmWARE software
in linux to create a virtual m/c and then you can install any OS you want in
that virtual m/c.

Am I correct? or If my opinion is irrelavant, please ignore this mail
