Really? That is intriguing. I hate rebooting between OSs (it is dual-boot W98SE/
redhat 7.3 at the moment). I don't mind VMWARE getting my hundred bucks (am
I being naive here?), but I'll want it to work. It's an 800 Duron. That would be
penutlimate
to Heaven - work on Pro Tools Free in W98 SE and switch without reboots to linux
for
email, AbiWord, and expermenting with sound recording in linux!

But is that the most likely to be better than crossover or win4lin for running Pro

Tools Free in Windows 98 SE to record musical instruments?
