-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you decide you do want a unix-like environment under the other OS, and don't want to install a gnu/linux distro in a vm, I'd suggest interix/services for unix under xp, or the built-in equivalent that supposedly comes with vista. I have SFU installed on my windows installation here, and can't complain. Having said that though, I must also say that I haven't made much use of it, so there may yet be something for me to complain about.
