VMWARE creates a Virtual Machine which runs under linux (or NT for masochists) allowing you to use another operating system concurrently. This means you could have your linux system hosting, say, NT4 running MS Office & printing via Samba to your linux printer. When (not if) the M$ o/s keels over you just reboot the virtual machine not the linux host. You could even run another Linux inside a VM for added Penguin Power. The VM uses virtualized hardware so can be very slow on low-spec pcs (mine is AMD K6-233 and is just tolerable).
