Doesn't VMWare have a 30 day trial? Use it to create a Win3.1 appliance, then use the appliance w/ VMWare. On 7/26/07, Chris Worley wrote:

The second url is a search for MS appliances. None looked like Win 3.1, but maybe one could work. Maybe somebody could make a 3.1 appliance for him?

The 'player' is ok provided someone has already made an 'appliance' which fits your needs. The VMWare SERVER is flexible and you can run virtually *any* guest OS on it 'simultaneously' with your host (provided you have enough memory of course). I routinely load up alpha and beta versions of SUSE rather than risk my installed system and when I feel the need to feel grateful that I run linux and I want to run Windows, I run it with the rubber gloves of 'VM server' protecting my posterior. And, it is free to non commercial interests and there is little or no speed penalty. I don't see a good reason to go after the player unless you simply need plug'n'play of an existing appliance and I'm pretty sure you won't find Win 3.1 pre-loaded, at least not legally.
