Windows Applications In Linux

[Jeff Daum <erdrick@alefgard.com>]

Greetings,

	I was wondering if anyone had any success in being able to run windows 
applications in Linux. I have read that there are a few programs that allow 
this, but being a newbie, and I have little clue as to which to select, where 
to get it, and how to install/configure it. I would appreciate any help 
anyone can provide. The types of applications I am wanting to run are Games, 
and a few non-game applications. So whatever emulator you sudgest, I think, 
should need to be able to support direct-x.  If it helps my system is a duel 
boot, that can boot into Linux-Mandrake 7.2, or Windows 98. Linux can browse, 
modify some files, in the windows partition. 

On a side note. If something like this can be well configured for Linux, 
Linux would probobly get more people to use it since people would not be 
giving up loved applications and games that are ported only to windows. This 
is what is holding me back from using only Linux, and what is probobly 
holding othrs back as well. Just my thoughts. =)
