Many thanks for your comments, Derek. I'll be at the Linux show this Thursday, with a view to buying the latest Suse Distribtion, or if not cheap enough, I'll get it via Suse-schools pricing. Several people have suggested this distro as a way of getting a look at VM ware. Regards, John.

Hello to all, can anyone advise where I can get a copy of VM ware to run MS programs on
a
Linux box? I just need an evaluation copy for the time being- VMware's site
wants money up front.
Isn't it on the SuSE distribution?
I use VMware on one machine at school because I have to be able to access the Novell NDS - it doesn't get used for anything else! I have my own copy
at home because I sometimes have to develop MS based material and it is really useful to run a virtual network on the desktop. It needs processor and RAm power, though!
