Just an update on my Vista laptop that I wanted to switch over to SUSE. One of the things I needed it to do was run our main application, written in .net but requiring many Windows-based controls.
In any case, I've now gotten VMWare to run perfectly in a 1400x1050 resolution with the application running just fine inside. I have no problems with speed or response.
I'd say this is the best of both worlds - a legacy OS like Windows running inside SUSE.
While this surely is impressive, on a more general note, I doubt that it the best way to run windows. After all it requires much more in regard to hardware resources than a native windows would need. You still cannot do anything that windows can do within an emulator. AND, it is quite costly to buy a windows license, and additional windows software licenses for any linux computer that is standing around, just to get in the end, what you had before: A computer that perfectly runs your main windows application(s). ;-))
