If you have ever used Linux, the idea of running Linux and Windows together must have occurred to you at some point. The good news is that there are better methods to do this than simply configuring a boot loader like Grub or Lilo to be able to load only one of the operating systems at a time.

There is a great software called Wine which can help by implementing Windows API on Linux. It lets you run a lot of Windows applications on Linux but some of the applications require wasting time on configuration, some have minor display problems and other bugs. However most of the light-weight windows programs seem to run perfectly without any configuration.
