</div>I hav enever used those technologies (I don't have Windows) but from<br>
gut feeling I think that having a real dual boot, or a single boot<br>
with Windows in VirtualBox, would be best. Running Linux inside of<br>
Windows sounds like having the terrible application selection of<br>
Linux, with the terrible stability and resourcefullness of Windows. A<br>
lose-lose situation.<br>
