I've run Windows 98SE and WinXP under linux via QEMU
(http://fabrice.bellard.free.fr/qemu/). The only catch I found was that
the WinXP product activation program would cause you to not be able to
log in. I assume this is because I did not setup networking, but this
is not something I have ever seen on a "real" XP machine. This could
probably be fixed via safe mode, but I wasn't that desperate to use
WinXP :D
My experiences with VMWare Workstation 4 were also positive. The only
caveat is that it costs several hundred dollars and is non-GPL.
