    Don't know if it's something called emulator, but it's a linux distribution
    that you can install directly in Windows...that runs under Windows and
    can run Linux programs...so yeah it's an emu or something like Win3.1 was for Dos.
    (an addon or rather full OS under another OS)
    Heh. Not for you XP users yet.
    Sorry I use W98 and I sometimes forget that everyone use XP nowadays...

    If you don't have W98 or ME you don't bother with download.
    I've checked it and read some of the info, guides etc..
    after I gave the answer and it still won't support
    XP, NT and 2003 Server...

    But if you still want you can get it from here: http://www.click-now.net/downloads13.htm
    ^link checked and don't contain warez but if you find something
    against the rules feel free to inform me or delete the link.

    After install it'll ask you to register online for specific PC
    you're workin on (big minus for that system ;()
    to bypass this you'll need a special...hmm...you know *addon*
    but it's hard to find on the net and I haven't found it yet...
    This is weird for a freeware OS.

    Do not download old Linux Distributions and use a real installation on a Partition. If you want to test Linux download a Live CD. Look here www.distrowatch.com
    I'm using Debian Sarge with IceWM and rox for the Desktop Icons. I recommend Debian,Vector Linux,KateOS,Ubuntu/Kubuntu and for LiveCD's Kanotix etc.

    Damn small linux can run on windows aswell and it fits on USB memory stick, it's not that good though.
