It is a Win= dows application that executes unmodified Linux applications on Windows by = intercepting Linux system calls. Not really an emulator since they run dire= ctly on the CPU (as does Wine on Linux). It runs applications like GhostView, Netscape, Bash, etc. Quite amazing rea= lly. There was another comment (from xod I think) about Windows being based on D= OS. While this may be true for Windows 95/98, it is not for Windows NT and = 2000. Windows NT is closer to VMS than to DOS. See: http://www.winntmag.com/Articles/Index.cfm?IssueID=3D97&ArticleID=3D4494 Chris. --=20 http://www.double.co.nz/dylan
